I stood, Chamberlain like, with a piece of paper in my hand.

I argued for restraint but no answer was forthcoming so this household has now entered civil war.


The piece of paper in question was the Gas Bill.
Michelle put the central heating on last night.
I then turned it off and handed her a jumper.

Words were exchanged and so the annual "Let's see who is going to win" battle of the Central Heating is re-engaged.

I said it is not to go on until at least 1st October and she complains of being cold.

It will be a fraught fortnight as we battle each other.

Then, once the heating has been turned on it will be a series of 'Rotational Skirmishes' as she dials clockwise and I dial anticlockwise on the thermostat.

Women have no concept of cost.
I pointed out that she spends a lot of money on clothes so she should perhaps consider wearing some of them!

To be continued, ad nauseum, until March 2014.
