The people I know with AGA’s eg clients who love in the countryside mention that they give an ambient warmth to their entire homes / take the chill off the air.

I've still not got my head round the new (2 year old) thermostat and the heating came on by mistake a couple of times. I had to have a stern word with myself over that, and it's now firmly switched off, unless MrsBC makes a special request in triplicate.

For those NSC-ers working/skiving at home, I can highly recommend a heated desk. Why heat the whole room when you just want to keep yourself toasty? I got mine from okoform.com

Have to admit I've been quite liberal with the heating this year. On for an hour most afternoons around 4ish and that sees us through the night. Plenty of money in the energy account, prices aren't as crazy, as the last couple of years, I've learned to relax and not get anxious about this now. 
One thing that has made a huge difference. I got a Vaillant engineer out to service the boiler this year and this chap seemed to really know his stuff. He changed a couple of bits and changed several settings and said the boiler was working at it's absolute best efficiency wise now. We'll see if it makes a difference.

Is that how Mrs BC explained it “it came on by mistake, both times (that you know of)”

Lovely and warm in Shoreham today. No heating required yet. Maybe next month.

11c, cloudy and damp outside today. One degree below the long term average.
You must have a well insulated home. Or an AGA.

Me too, colder nights had made the house chilly
Of course I have! Thermostat set to 19 degrees (way below the recommended temperature for old OAPs like me) - but I can live with that. What do you think I am? - a f***in' penguin?
