Have You Got The Heating On?

[Tilly2]

We have. I have just been in the garden with Tilly and it's perishing. A clear sky and a three quatrer moon shining brightly. Brrrrr! Glad to come back inside.

I'll bet the dogs love it too, Baldric

//Mrs. C. I would love an open fire. Lucky you.//

o god try cleaning it, laying it and lighting it whenever you want the heating on - aaaargh !

Each to his own, I'm obviously a woodburner numpty.

Trust you, Tilly

I said on that thread that in August, after being in Florida for almost 3 weeks, we will be in the Bahamas for a week taking it easy after all the theme parks in Orlando, and travelling around ( The Everglades is on my radar as is Clearwater, St Petersberg, Miami, Tampa,Fort Myers etc

Really cold these last few days. After we got our gas bill 'shock horror' recently, we were pleased that it turned warmer so we turned the heating off. It's back on again now in the evenings.

We had an open coal fire till I was 14. I loved it, but then I didn't have to clean it or set it. My responsibility was limited to going to the coal house for a shovelful now and again. Of course, at the height of winter, whilst the living room was lovely and cosy the rest of the house was freezing. Hot water bottles or electric blankets for bed.

[Tilly2]

Sounds great, Yogi. I hope you enjoy it.

Just been outside again! Tilly's in hedgehog hunt mode. :-(

The planets and stars have appeared. Venus is very bright and beautiful tonight! Even colder though.

[Psybbo]

Off to bed, goodnight, no electric blanket, just a lovely duvet and will be overheating as usual xx

[Tilly2]

Goodnight, Sibs. Make sure you have enough loose duvet to let your legs out!

[Baldric]

Sibs, don't forget the woolly hat!
;o)

Thanks, Tilly....the kids are getting excited and even the two eldest, who are at Uni, and go on holiday with their friends, have blagged a holiday with good old Mum and Dad (As if they were ever gonna refuse when we asked them if they fancy it )

Temps can get really hot there so drinking a lot is so important. Our friends, who are in Fort Lauderdale, say the temps are up to 35C already.....phew

We went to Florida last June and it's relentless - completely knackering but worth it because the kids loved it. It's about the only place I've ever been where no one bats an eye at people with lots of kids.

[Tilly2]

Have a lovely time, yogi. Feedback on your return, please.

I'm off too. Goodnight all and thanks for the entertaining responses.

I might buy a multi-fuel burner tomorrow! Thanks, Baldric. xx

Just the place for children sherrard, I bet they loved it. My granddaughter was blown away by it all, even the Space centre.

[yogi-bear]

Night, Tilly....sleep well, my lovely xx

Been turning the heating off during the day the last week or so, but putting it back to 60 for the evenings.
