Still not kicked in - thermostat is set to 19.6, temp dropped to 19.7 this morning, before the sun kicked in, and again this afternoon when we had the door open.
If the forecast is vaguely accurate, I think it might not trigger the heating until October - we shall see.

My cats are desperate for it to kick in, and one of them regularly sleeps on a cushion by a cold radiator 🥶

Well the house is still lovely and warm without CH, which sounds good when having a rare day of working from home, but what that actually means is being evicted to my rather cooler garden cabin/office. It was 4 degrees when i ventured out there.

Nice and comfortable now, but I'm not sure how many kWhrs the heater chomped through!

Barnet,
I'm under pressure from MrsP to put the heating on.
I am still in shorts but MrsP has had her electric over blanket on the settee on for a couple of weeks now, and her half of the electric blanket in the bed on also.
I fear I am a losing battle here.😟

We are still in the light the wood burner then have to open the French windows as gets too hot. We had the boiler serviced the other day the first thing the Engineer noticed was the pressure tank was hanging off the wall. Although we have had the heating off we have had the boiler heating the water but we also had the immersion heater on as well. No wonder the bills have been high

If it was up to me it would almost never be on, but when you're married you have to make compromises...
 
Onesie and fluffy socks here. Feeling a little chilly tonight - lack of sunshine definitely makes a difference to how clement the house feels generally. I did have the fire on for an hour earlier just to take that chill away.

Storage heaters are still most definitely off. Currently easier to reach for some warmer clothing.
