    Female Thermal Dissonance

    It is like Marakesh in here yet "it is not hot enough" I am told.

    The temperature the thermostat is reading is higher than it has given me over the summer when nobody complained, yet she wants it higher.

    Feck getting a nanny in, what we need is a couple of navvies to shovel coal into a boiler before she shuts up.

    WTF goes on in their tiny female minds?

      She does it to irritate you and then laughs behind your back at your inability to see what she's up to.

              Strip naked and sit on the sofa scratching your undercrackers moaning about how hot it is, this works a treat but my wife's mum and dad were not to impressed though

                Women are generally colder than men due to our physiology.

                What you need to do is get your wife to do more exercise especially out doors.

                Next year convince her to run one of those womens' 5KM for charitee and then get her to run further after she has done that. (Just don't let her do a marathon because half of people lose the will to live after that.) Yes you and the kids will have to go out and support her if the races are on a weekend but your heating bills will be less next winter.

                There are also other benefits for you.

                  Shouldn't one call an ambulance before suggesting something like that?

                    Totally with you on this one. Much of our cool summer it was only about 19' and that was no problem but now winter is here the missus feels cold if it's less than 22. Wierd.
