Wet, heavy snow today The electricity was off for 12 hours (9AM to 9PM). So no posts on 4/19 and this late/early post on 4/20 at 2:15 AM.

Jo, I am just curious. What tempature do people generally set their thermostat to in their houses. I am mostly looking to see what ranges of tempatures Brits consider normal when they have to pay the heat bill. I know people who live in flats/apartments where the heat is included in the rent, tend to set the thermostat about 4 to 6 degrees warmer than people in housed where the occupier has to pay the heat, electricity, and water bills.

Back in 1906, just kidding. I mean back in 1974 when my monthly heat bill was $25 I used to set the thermostat to 70 or 72 degrees F. Now that heat bills ate $125 to $175 a month in the winter, many people set the thermostat to 65 to 68 degrees.

I have an older relative with poor circulation and low blood pressure, she likes it 82 to 84 F in her apartment. Heat and electricity is included in the rent so 65f or 84f degrees cost the same.
