Surprisingly sunny here today, and not cold at all.
It's the end of October and heating is still not on (last year we turned it on around mid-November). Not a good sign regarding climate change, but I have to say I'm glad about my energy bills.

Trick-or-treating's winding down here; while local kids are probably happy not to have to cover their costumes with winter coats, 19 C on Halloween evening just doesn't seem proper.

How are you coping with the very cold weather. I got a electric heater on in one room, to keep the heating bills down.

i put my central heating on for 15 mins every now and then when its cold like today and i have small rooms that keep the heat in so it seems to work out well.i do have a sleeping bag i climb into as its only me and its actually very warm and cosy.

And in New England, we are praying that the promised rain actually arrives tomorrow. Everything is like tinder here. When I imagine November, I think of rainy, depressing days, but all we've had for about two months is sun and more sun.

I put the central heating on 2 hours in the morning just to make sure there no problem. And the electric heater on in the evening for four hours. But with this very cold weather electric heater on during the day, just in one room only.

We’ve got Storm Bert hitting us just now, this part of the country is only getting high winds and rain( not yet torrential)…some parts of the country are getting it tight though!
