It’s the first proper cold night here in Kent. I was wondering if everyone turned the heating on already?
ive been thinking of buying electric blankets. Do they help? How do you use them?
AIBU?

Get yourself an electric under blanket for when it becomes cold. Ours is fast warm up (about ten minutes) with dual controls so DH doesn't have to have his side the same temperature as mine. We turn it off just before getting into bed. Very economical and a joy to get into bed. Ours looks like a fitted mattress protector, no ties involved.

No heating on here.
No electric blankets.
It's not THAT cold.
How the F are people going to cope when it's actually REALLY cold? People need to get a grip!

Just curious for those who haven’t had to put heating on yet how you get all the washing dried when it’s average 10-13c and wet outside, genuine question as finding it very difficult to get thick hoodies and joggers and towels etc dry atm without the house feeling damp and the clothes starting to smell and I’m too reluctant to turn heating on yet but don’t feel like I can avoid it for much longer?
