currently brumphThat's it. My system of calendar-based heating thermostat control has been tested for the last time. It's going on for a couple of hours, August or no August.
Bloody 12° C it is. 12! Not having that. There are no bearskins to hand - and I'm not going out to kill one this morning just to warm up. And it's too wet to collect the firewood in the forest. No, central heating on is the way forward.
I've been out to walk the dog, got rained on. Very cold and fine rain, accompanied by the sort of wind that gets it all up your orifices.
The heating IS ON.
