    I have the same problem.
    On sunny days, even if its only around 0c I can turn the heating off for a few hours but this gloomy freezing weather means I have to keep some heating on just to make it bearable.

    Once the house gets cold it takes loads of heating to get it back up to a sensible temperature, probably more than you can save by turning it off.

              Yesterday we had freezing fog all day and my car kept telling me that my parking sensors weren't working because they were dirty! I tried wiping the sensors but it wasn't satisfied and swearing at it doesn't seem to help.

              We now have rain forecast for the next seven days. Another glorious winter's day.

                  Hi,

                  Another bitterly cold day today but heavy rain forecast for tomorrow; WHOOPEE back to normal.

                      I am relieved to see rain this morning. The place looks and feels normal again, and I feel more like myself again.
                      There is no sunshine but I don't care, it's milder and that's what counts.

                          3c and damp rather that wet.
                          Cloudy with a breeze.
