Unless it stops raining any time soon, may have to put the heating on on a low peep to get my washing dry.

Since I only have gas-powered central heating and hot water, no, I don't give it any thought.

Why not? Gas heating churns out huge amounts of greenhouse gases.

"I only have gas-powered central heating and hot water" is the big clue there.

So would using clothing that provided better insulation not be an option, at least while it's still the Summer?

I mean you gotta do what you gotta do and as we age keeping warm overrides everything but it just seems unfortunate that there now seems to be a mindset that concentrates on turning on heating as the first thing to do.

I guess my sensitivity about protecting the environment makes me a bit biased.

Am l the only one, or have you had to put your heating on too?
Good grief - No! Not cold enough here just yet - but I have put on a long sleeved T Shirt.

I am not a guy - but I will answer you anyway - The alternatives are too expensive.
