I am freezing. I have just utterly flipped out with dd and yelled "It's JULY"!! (in south-east - it's 15 degrees in my kitchen)

Dd said 'bet you can find someone on Mumsnet who has their heating on in Britain'.

So we are betting there is Grin

Me! But only because I am desperately trying to dry a non tumble dry pair of trousers and top for tomorrow.

LolaThePregnantFlyola · 02/07/2012 18:00

yes, and i'm not even at home.

RackandRuin · 02/07/2012 18:00

Not me, but my mum has. I hope to god she's not on here.

BrianCoxhasSmellySox · 02/07/2012 18:00

was contemplating putting it on low, I'm cold and the house feels damp and yukky.

Yes had mine on earlier mostly to dry washing but also because it's freezing.

Conflugenglugen · 02/07/2012 18:01

Yes, i put mine on for a few hours this morning. I'm so glad I'm not the only one - thought I was going mad feeling cold.

Gravity1 · 02/07/2012 18:03

I do - partly because I feel damp, chilly and miserable, and partly to try to dry all our shoes off for tomorrow. Grumble etc.

MissCoffeeNWine · 02/07/2012 18:03

No, it's been off for months. It's 15 degrees outside no need for additional heating I wouldn't have thought, especially not mine that only does one temperature - boiling hot!

molepom · 02/07/2012 18:04

Yep, me and my mate and her dad no NEVER has the heating on so I know it's cold if he's got it on. He's one of those who wears hats and coats indoors before he puts the heating on.

molepom · 02/07/2012 18:05

Although as far as I know I'm the only on that list who is a MNer.

Dawndonna · 02/07/2012 18:07

My mother would if she were here, but she's in France at the moment.

Hullygully · 02/07/2012 18:07

yes. It's FREEZING

Piemistress · 02/07/2012 18:07

Mine is on :( I am in NE Scotland though and at home with 2 week old baba but still, it's flipping July!!

MimsyBorogroves · 02/07/2012 18:08

I put ours on for a while this morning.

I have a raging infection though, so was freezing, and my BLW baby needs to eat naked to spare the washing machine Grin It's off again now.

Procrastinating · 02/07/2012 18:08

mine is on.

LineRunner · 02/07/2012 18:09

How spooky. I just put mine on to try to dry out today's fucking dampness and general wet misery.

I am ragingly sick of this rain.

DashingRedhead · 02/07/2012 18:09

I cam really close, I must admit. It's freezing.

RubyFakeNails · 02/07/2012 18:10

Am in London and mine is on, set to 21/22 (apart from when I crank it 24 behind DHs back)

ThisWeekonFancyPuffin · 02/07/2012 18:10

Mine was on earlier, I'm in Kent. Then I got too hot and frantically opened all the windows Hmm

Losingitall · 02/07/2012 18:10

Me today to dry the washing.

Airer full tumble drier full radiators full

amothersplaceisinthewrong · 02/07/2012 18:10

Yes, mine is back on (Berkshire)

MidnightKnitter · 02/07/2012 18:10

Yep me too. Sad I'm in soggy central Scotland and i'm drowning in wet washing. It's driving me mad. I dread to think what the bill will be like.
