Funny you should say that - when I had a Pentium 4 I used to put that on in the mornings to warm the room up, then in the evening I'd put the projector on and watch hours of TV just to save money on the gas :roflmao:

We had a frost up here last night! Had to light the coal fire this evening - the electric storage heater had to go on last night. Brr

Must admit, I turned the heating on for half an hour, before I had my shower this morning. Twas very nice, warm and sunny during the day, but there is a definite feel about autumn chill this evening.

your all a bunch of big girls blouses, I'm still using the air con in the car, don't you know its against the law to put your heating on before October. What you need is a nice beige cardy and some tarten slippers. The wife did try to light the fir the other night, but as we had no kindaling or even any fire lighters and shes hopples at getting a fire going it didn't do much except smoke Why dos she sit there with nothing on her feet, all the doors open and then complain shes could >

I have a big pile (must get some cream) of wood for burning this winter, but no doubt the gas bill will still be astronomical
