Has anyone put their central heating on yet?

I love it when people measure years by seasons.

The first part of his sentence was like a voiceover from a Western film. Then he ruined it by telling us he climbs in skips

I spied a pallet on my dog walk earlier. Be back for that tomorrow ;)

Anyone else have a garden office/log cabin?

I have quite a big one and we have one little radiator. Is there a more economical way of heating?

My sister has one, she uses a calor gas heater and says it’s cheaper. Heats the place up really quick apparently

Couple of hours in the morning and the evening. Might need to start it a little earlier as we go into winter.

Set fire to some of the logs. That'd do it.

No heating yet. I did test it a few times over the last few weeks to make sure it works.
We have new double glazing, insulated loft and walls.
We also have five people in the house, so what's that 60 watts per person?

However, i have noticed the house has never dropped below 18C overnight. During the day it seems to raise it's self to 20C+. (Hive app data)
We recently had the house rendered. It was for cosmetic reasons only.
But it seem to have had a positive effect on the heat retention.
I didn't think an inch of render was going to make much difference. But i do think the fact it waterproofs the walls does.
Since the bricks are no longer getting wet, there is no heat sapping evaporation going on.
