Old Speckled Hen Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 We have lots of big windows so the little sunshine we are getting does warm the house. So none on yet. Forecast is for a wet blustery May so may yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welovemarmite Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 its not on yet but have thought about it. Our house is reconstituted stone, so stays very cool which is great when we actually do have a summer. I have just had to have a bath to warm up as i got so cold sitting at my desk beading. If I was doing housework I think the movement would keep me warm. Had plenty of layers on and fingerless gloves!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesley Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 I haven't packed my Slanket away yet! - even my grandson snuggled under it with me last night while we watched a film. We were tempted to light the woodburner but haven't done so yet, but I will take a wheatbag to bed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lavenders_Blue Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Really?! Haven't found it cold at all! Same here! I've had a jumper/cardigan on when I've been outside but in the house it's been toasty. No heating on here since April when I switched it off for the summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 9 degrees and damp here . I put the heating back on this morning - my excuse is that YS is revising upstairs and needs warm hands . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 No heating on here but the stove was going most of the weekend. Cyrus made me laugh... I had a row of wet walking boots drying in front of the stove and he lay with his chin on the hearth and nose in between the boots; I will post a photo when I get it off the camera.

Goosey Lucy Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Heating went on for an hour last night for the first time in ages. Grey, wet and miserable here today. Where's the sun gone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 'Someone' has just turned the heating on at work I suspect the 'Front Office Fairies' who never dress appropriately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
