It only needs to be on a little bit, unless you have a naturally low body temperature/low blood pressure or are really thin or something.

I've turned my heating on in the past few days for the first time since about March-April. It's only an electric fan heater in one room though. Haven't used my gas central heating for at least five or six years - the system is 33 years old and hasn't been serviced for well over a decade, I'd be worried that it might blow the house up if I tried to activate it.

It's the graveyard shift on WP yet again, folks. That period of several hours starting from around 1 am UK time when virtually no-one posts. Utterly soul-destroying experience to keep checking the forums and pressing the refresh button in the hope of seeing a new post or a reply to one of my own posts. This period actually encompasses much of the early to late evening period in the USA, where a majority of the members apparently reside - what are you folks up to, LOL?

EDIT: Not a single bloody post even in the 'General Autism Discussion' forum for almost nine hours! This has traditionally been an extremely active forum, often attracting at least a double-figured number of posts per hour.

:cry:

Absolutely. Why are virtually no USA members posting from late-afternoon to early-evening (depending on timezone)?

The forum has unfortunately died in large part, in terms of its activity level.

I think we are witnessing the tail end of the aliveness of the forum.

I reckon the depths can sink even lower, in the future.

Yeah, that's kind of what I fear for this forum in the future.

But who knows, hopefully it will stay at least as busy as it is now.

They have such specific growing conditions that it's pretty much impossible to grow your own, so they have to be found in the wild. They're not very common, so they're expensive and considered a delicacy

I've never had one, so I don't know if they really taste that great, but I hear they're very flavorful and have a unique texture
