Was at the Wrexham v Altrincham game on Saturday (each team managed by a Phil Parkinson).

I've managed to get through the whole of October without putting my heating on and I've only had to wear a jumper/hoodie for warmth.

On one of our teams calls at the other day, a lad working from home had his dressing gown and a wooly hat on. Is anyone else going to such extremes? <laugh>

This is where I'm at as well.
The missus likes to be warm so normally the heating is on for hours, she's would say she's cold and I'm sitting in shorts and
t- shirt!
Not now though, even she's saying they're not getting anymore from us....she's sitting with a big dressing gown on and fluffy slipper boots.
