i feel like there are cold people and warm people. I’m a cold person too!Although now I’ve written it down, I wonder if I have a problem with my circulation
And I have a 13.5 tog duvet at all times, even in the height of summer.

Recently returned from South Africa where it's summer over there and temps in the mid 30s. But here it's just above freezing so I set my thermo to 28 as I really feel the cold
Set to 16 and has been all day , it’s just a constant warm no need to turn up or down. No heating on overnight, goes on at 7 in the morning.
22 most of the day from around October to April usually 
I can't stand being cold and get cold really easily. Turn it off for the night and it goes down to 18-19 depending on how cold it is outside

Set to 23 all day and night, I start shivering with anything lower 
Downstairs is currently set at 25 and upstairs at 30, but I only put it on when I need it and never overnight. It’s a big house with only me in it so it gets quite cold. My pantry has no radiator in it and I nearly froze to death looking for a bottle of wine earlier 
I dream of having a thermostat, why do so many landlords not have them?! 
I also don't have a thermostat due to renting. I have my heating on all day and only off at night time. I'm worried the bill is going to be crazyI dream of having a thermostat, why do so many landlords not have them?!
People who leave your heating on all day, is your bill bad???
19-20 during the day until we go to bed and then down to 15 overnight
We have our thermostat set to around 19-21 for us all evening we are out at work all day but if it’s gonna be a rainy day or there’s snow etc or temps like under 6/7 I’ll leave it set to around 17/18 for the cats as they deserve it.
Oh and it’s not on while we are in bed

mine is oil so I don’t get a bill as the oil is bought upfront ... oil is cheap at the moment so I’ve not been too concerned. Though if I’m being honest I don’t really care what it costs as long as me and my cats and rabbits are warm enough. I spent years of my life living without heating so now I love the luxury of just wallowing in warmthI also don't have a thermostat due to renting.

When it's on time for about 3 hours each in mornings and evenings it's set to 19 . It doesn't always get to 19°c in the rooms, though.
If I put it on manually during the day ( which I do all day at the minute) i set it for 16 or 16.5 and that is warm enough.

Mine is set to 20°c and it's always on.
Growing up, we would never have the heating on as my mother would rather spend money on shoes and crap so I was always cold.
I dread to think of being cold now so the heating it's always on.

Ahh at last I have found my tribe!Although now I’ve written it down, I wonder if I have a problem with my circulation

I have my heating at the same temp as you both and I'm also a proud member of the 13.5 tog duvet brigade (yep, even in the summer
).I think I must've been left on Everest to freeze to death in a past life, so much is my hatred of the cold
I do this too. If it’s cold and I’m at work and I check the Hive, I’ll put the heating on for my two cats
I'm a cold bod too - my heating is set on 25. Hubby sits in shorts & t shirts and i sit with a blanket over me.
My flat is currently 22 with no heating on. I don't even know when I last had the heating on lol

Forever on 23.5-24 because I like to be warm. My flat is so cold so I need it on really warm.
