Nope north east England

IheardYouButDontWantToAnswer · 02/07/2023 15:22

No, but it has been quite cool. Midlands area.

TomatoSandwiches · 02/07/2023 15:22

SE here, has been unbareabley hot and humid recently, overcast today but still muggy.

CosmosQueen · 02/07/2023 15:23

South west England here and I’m cold. I’m wearing a fleece, long sleeve tee shirt, socks and jeans and a still chilly. It was lovely and warm at 8am, definitely cooler now 🙄

5childrenand · 02/07/2023 15:25

No but we’re in the SE. It’s warm. We’ve got the French doors open.

SayNoToDoorToDoor · 02/07/2023 15:26

NE England. No. It is a lot cooler especially as it’s windy but
a) the DC are fine with the temperature , b) can’t afford it, b) my random internal furnace has kicked in 🥵

dudsville · 02/07/2023 15:27

No, but i like a hot water bottle with wool socks and a rug!

Doggymummar · 02/07/2023 15:28

Yes I'm in Brighton been freezing all week had a hot water bottle and slept in my dressing gown three nights this week.n

Myworldjusthim · 02/07/2023 15:31

Yes. In West Yorkshire. It’s definitely cooler here 14C with winds. Popped on heating for a bit to warm house up. Warmed up very quickly. Thought was just me feeling cold, but my eldest DC was also complaining.

AlfietheSchnauzer · 02/07/2023 15:32

Had the fire on for 5 mins a while ago

dontgobaconmyheart · 02/07/2023 15:32

No, its humid as anything and very warm here SE but I'm happy to be the first to get the heating on if it's actually cold. These days I'm more likely to whip out a heated throw, they're game changing.

Tadashi · 02/07/2023 15:33

No, but I'm in SE England

bonfirebash · 02/07/2023 15:34

Nope, NW England and I've been river swimming in a bikini

ElenaGreco76 · 02/07/2023 15:34

Yes, last night for the first time in a while.

LemongrassLollipop · 02/07/2023 15:34

NW England
There was talk of it but I convinced DH he should put a jumper on

JustGotToKeepOnKeepingOn · 02/07/2023 15:35

No. It's muggy and warm. And I'm seriously menopausal so am plenty warm enough

BakewellGin1 · 02/07/2023 15:36

Nope. NE England.
Won't be on until October now.

Heartbreaktuna · 02/07/2023 15:37

Yes. NE Scotland. It was 7 degrees this week.

Coronationstation · 02/07/2023 15:38

East Scotland and no! It’s 20.7 in my living room at the moment with all the windows open and a gale blowing through from the back!

MrsDanversGlidesAgain · 02/07/2023 15:41

Nope. SW London, windows open all the time, and too warm at night even with a summer duvet.

crosstalk · 02/07/2023 15:49

No - East of England. Chilly but just worth a blanket while watching tv.

MaidOfSteel · 02/07/2023 15:56

I've had a portable radiator on here. Western Scotland.

DinkeyDonkey · 02/07/2023 15:57

North of England and I had it on today

Arewehumanorarewecupboards · 02/07/2023 15:58

Dh has and it’s doing my head in.
I’m opening windows to let air in, he’s closing them.
I’m wearing a jumper (because it is a little chilly) and he’s sat in a T-shirt with a plug in radiator at his feet.

eetee · 02/07/2023 15:59

God no the house has only just cooled down from the really hot spell just back.
