If you work varying hours, there's a good case for remote control
(Hive,
Nest, etc.) so that you can turn the heating on as you head for home.

That might be fine if you're single and live on your own...

More than one person can remote control the same stat...

Great. You turn it up because you're due home, and your partner turns it
down because is going to be late.


Maybe they need phones that let them communicate with each other as well
;-)


What, you mean "mobile" phones?


Yup, not only that, ones that can do voice calls or texts...

(although I suppose for the modern generation they could write their ETA
on the partners "wall" or whatever ;-)
