Internal thermostats

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
It's a pain in the arse living with someone on a different thermostat to you! Mr Miffy would probably find the fiery depths of Sheol a bit parky, whereas my ideal holiday destination would be somewhere like...say, Greenland. In winter.

So he walks past the central heating thermostat and turns it up...I walk past and turn it down...and so we go on.

Separate houses?:chin:

    The building I live in is quite old. So all 4 floors (6 flats/apartments) have the same thermostat in the basement. Imagine that. Not to mention that most people here are old tight-pockets, who either turn it up whenever they like because they're cold, or turn it down because they aren't and they don't want to waste money, not caring about the rest of the residents.
    See the bottom-right part of my sig... lol

    i am almost always cold. so i'm used to wearing several more layers than everyone else. and mr. kaff is usually warm. which is useful when sleeping, cause i use him to warm myself up, and he uses me to cool down.
