Air con here in the South of Italy 😊

Lucky you.
Stop trying to make us jealous because it's working 🤣

No, it was chilly this morning & thought we might end up with a fire tonight but it’s not cold enough. Making do with bolognese and apple and blackberry crumble instead.

We just had our first roast dinner since the spring and I’ve lit a candle!!

Pixiedust49 · 14/09/2025 17:34

It is utterly miserable here and I’m missing the summer already. Heating has gone on for the first time in months.

Been away for a week, so came home & house was 16° so wacked it on to warm us up, to 18, took about an hour on Friday. Felt so nice, have had it on half hour 7 am yesterday & today. But big jumpers & throws are out. Have just packed away the fans & dogs cool blankets... I fear autumn is upon us...

TheeNotoriousPIG · 14/09/2025 17:34

Not yet, but I've been feeling the cold in the house a little bit on and off these last few days! So far, a fleece and a quilt keeps the chill off!

MotherTuckinGenius · 14/09/2025 17:33

I’m wearing an oodie and have the heating on.

Digdongdoo · 14/09/2025 17:32

We caved for hour an this afternoon, just to take the edge off. Miserable weather today.

greengreyblue · 14/09/2025 17:32

Ours came on itself due to the thermostat set to 18.Am also wearing a cotton jumper , jeans and socks. It’s gone off again now. I did close the living room little window that had been open for months.

BotterMon · 14/09/2025 17:31

Nope but we discussed it this afternoon. Decided to have a fire instead and save the oil for when it's really cold. Joys of an old cottage. Have a thermal long sleeved top on but still no socks.

Ineedanewsofa · 14/09/2025 17:31

Thermostat is set to 19 in the day at the weekend and it came on earlier so we must have dipped below! Had some radiators changed earlier in the year so it’s actually been a good chance to check they are working properly. Hopefully it’s not a regular occurrence though, could do with it not being on until October!

TheScottishPlay · 14/09/2025 17:31

On for an hour this morning and probably the same tonight (NE Scotland). House is well insulated but just moved in and taken up the carpets so it can get chilly.

PotteringAlonggotkickedoutandhadtoreregister · 14/09/2025 17:31

No, but I do have a jumper and socks on for the first time this year!

purpleme12 · 14/09/2025 17:30

It is sad times

ThePoshUns · 14/09/2025 17:30

I put it on for half an hour as despite layering up could not get warm. Also have the winter duvet back on and have unpacked my winter clothes and packed the summer ones away. Sad times.

PumpkinSeasonOctober · 14/09/2025 17:29

No but also feeling tempted. For now jumpers will have to do.

DinoLil · 14/09/2025 17:28

I'm hanging off for now. I do have two pairs of socks on, a cardigan and am under a throw with the dog!

SiobahnRoy · 14/09/2025 17:28

Ours has just clicked on, the thermostat is on 17c.

sophiecygnet · 14/09/2025 17:28

Yes for breakfast and shower time. Maybe this evening when we Stop moving around.

narkyspirit · 14/09/2025 17:27

I've got the sauna on as ive come back in from a walk in the cold and rain soaking wet and the heating has also gone on here

MumChp · 14/09/2025 17:20

No. 15C in the day outdoor.

purpleme12 · 14/09/2025 17:19

It's 18 degrees inside so no, not cold enough for heating

Zempy · 14/09/2025 17:18

No, but only because I am going away next week and didn’t think it was worth it.

Chunky roll neck jumper and under sofa blankets. SE.
