I think this is relevant:
Working from home has got rid of all the office thermostat arguments, in one role at a smaller company I started to miss working for the big corporate place as the small company had a control on the wall we all argued over, but the big corporate place had a 20 page form to complete to have a temparature change considered (20 day turnaround SLA).

17C outdoors and 22C in lounge, cool breeze recently but fine now I've closed the windows up and the loft hatch that's been open practically all summer.
When we get consecutive nights forecast to drop under approx 6C, we'll go back to the routine of putting the storage heaters on overnight, normally that wouldn't be until well into November.

When i felt feverish at work recently, a co-worker took pity on me and asked the facilities team to turn the heating down.
They found it had been set to 24 degrees, but then opted for an almost cryogenic 16.
My colleague moaned all day, until we compromised on 21 degrees.
Working in my garden office at home doesn't end the thermostat arguments; i argue with myself!

That is the sort of temperature generally recommended for bedrooms. For Living roms etc, the general recommendation is more like 21C.

But still too warm to put on another layer?

Could your colleague not slip on a cardigan?
It seems lost on people these days that when things are too warm and you're down to your shirt, that's it, but when its colder you simply slip on a warmer garment.

Hopefully I can get away with heating again this winter, it will be my fifth year without it
I'm not tight, but why waste money when you have warm clothes to wear.

So out of bed in to a freezing bathroom that will so full of steam when you put shower on, you will struggle to find your way out. I for one don’t like the house to warm but Mrs W does, however I would draw the line at sitting on the loo in a freezing cold bathroom when I got out of bed without clothes on..
Or do you not get undressed between October and April.

No heating on yet, not likely till at least end of Oct. Still in my shorts
Acclimatisation. I came downstairs a couple of weeks ago, switched on the coffee machine and thought to myself it's starting to get chilly in the morning. A glance at the thermometer showed it to be 23 degrees, I'd become accustomed to the hot weather over the summer months.

Hi I live in a small flat that is fully insulated even the walls, the lowest temperature I've seen is 15c, my lounge and bedroom are south facing so only the kitchen and bathroom ar a bit colder, but I can put up with that.
