Any ideas on a gadget that turns the CH off if windows are open?

Or lights that turn themselves off.

In my single days, I laughed once, returned from a business trip abroad
with a colleague when, directing the taxi late one Friday night, he said
"that house over there, the one with all the lights blazing."

Now that I'm married, and still have the occasional business trip, I use
pretty much the same description.

When quizzed, "oh, the house feels more lived in with the lights on, when
you're away".

Bloody women.

In our house it's the other way round. Grand daughter and I turn lights off
when we leave a room unless it's occupied. Guess who leaves them on?

Right in one. Spouse.
