Way too early. Maybe towards the end of October/beginning of November unless we have a real cold snap.

I've had it on a couple of times this week when I've been taking a shower. So barely an hour so far. Never have it on timer. Always switch it on or off as needed.

I don't put the heating on.

I burn manifestos of the green party.

I figure it's my contribution to net zero.

Mine usually goes on early November and stays on until end of March, unless it warms up earlier than that. Mind you, I only put one of the storage heaters on and it heats the whole flat if I keep the doors slightly open.
