Clychaugog · 14/09/2025 16:54

No, but the big jumpers are out 🐑

JamesWebbSpaceTelescope · 14/09/2025 16:54

I’m assuming you have put warm clothes on first? I’ve put on a winter jumper for the first time but the heating isn’t needed yet here.

We have just been talking about the heating,it is cold here today the weather is rank, we are hoping to hang off till the end of the month we might not make it though and just put it on !

GleisZwei · 14/09/2025 16:55

It's not remotely cold here (North of Scotland).

Seawolves · 14/09/2025 16:55

It's set to come on at 21° we haven't hit that yet so no heating on yet.

tulippa · 14/09/2025 16:56

No. Even though it's started to feel cold today. It's September and the heating doesn't go on until at least October in our house. We have lots of cosy blankets and thermals to use first.

Kitchenbattle · 14/09/2025 16:56

No, my house is a new build, highly insulated and still too warm 😅

Imissgoldengrahams · 14/09/2025 16:57

I don't think there is a month where I don't have the heating on. (Scotland)

StuffingMyNuts · 14/09/2025 16:57

We put the heating on for 10 minutes this morning but it’s a very well insulated house so had to turn it off quickly. Currently house is still 19 degrees so won’t turn it on again

BellyPork · 14/09/2025 16:57

Air con here in the South of Italy 😊

afaloren · 14/09/2025 16:57

Not the central heating but we’ve lit our first fire today.

I am central Scotland and its cold where I am. I visited the parents and they had the hot water bottles on the go.

Oh 😂

Devilsmommy · 14/09/2025 16:59

Yes, between 5&6 this morning to take the chill off and then a cheeky hour this afternoon 🤭 tempted to whack it on again because it's pouring down and the wind is making it🥶

tripleginandtonic · 14/09/2025 16:59

No but today's the first day I feel tempted

DelphiniumBlue · 14/09/2025 17:00

I'm contemplating it.
I'm sitting here in my living room freezing but thermometer say 19 degrees, so feel I probably shouldn't yet.

jettisoned · 14/09/2025 17:00

No it's 22° in the sitting room. Nowhere near cold enough yet. Plus despite all the rain, it's still summer.

Createausername1970 · 14/09/2025 17:00

Ours is set to come on if the temperature drops below 13 degrees overnight or 17 degrees in the day.

It hasn't done that yet and I haven't felt the need to hit the "boost" button so far 😂

Hoodies, socks and slippers in the meantime, and a handy throw on the sofa to pull over me if I need it in the evening.

Petrolitis · 14/09/2025 17:01

Fire is going, but me and the cat are ill so we need it!

muddyford · 14/09/2025 17:02

Tried it on Thursday for half an hour in the morning. It was lovely, so have repeated it each morning since. Only 6.15-6.45 though.

ElinorDashwood68 · 14/09/2025 17:02

Yes, since Friday. Central Scotland

Newgolddream70 · 14/09/2025 17:02

19 here in my lounge but I’m not caving in yet. Got the big cardi out!

TheBlackSheepbaaaa · 14/09/2025 17:03

Yes, it's been on for a couple of days here in West Yorkshire.
