Then the TRVs in the kitchen area should cope? They do here.

Surely the whole idea of central heating is that places like the bathroom
are at a decent temp when you use them? Not just the living areas?

for me, yes. But I live in a house with just radiators, the gas fire
went years ago, I don't have an aga or log-burner competing with the C/H.

Right. So what exactly is this all house stat seeing?

The temperature in the new kitchen/diner extension.

If I'm in there cooking, it doesn't matter if the rest of the house
cools off. In fact, it might even be an advantage.

We very rarely *cook* things for breakfast.

Not every day; but if it's on, we'll typically be in that room for the
remainder of the evening. Not least because it's the room with the TV.

It's a bit of a waste to keep the bathroom warm, when all you'll be
doing is brushing your teeth for five minutes before going to bed.

I'd say your best plan would be to switch off the central heating
completely. Since you obviously don't like it.

Of course it was once thought soft not to have bedrooms and bathrooms
below freezing point in winter. Not here, though. Had enough of that as a
kid.

The new house I was brought up in, during the early 60's only had
central heating in the upstairs and downstairs halls. The best choice
of just one of those would obviously be the downstairs one.

I suppose it's worth having a cold bathroom to firm her nipples up when
she cleans her teeth before entering a warm bedroom and taking her
clothes off.

Ah the excitement of waking up and realising from the quality of
light that it had snowed. Then sucking an old penny sticking it on
the window to thaw a spyhole through the frosting to see how much
snow there was.

Anyway the room wasn't below freezing, thick curtains took care of
that and a couple of thick wool blankets and eiderdown meant the bed
was toasty.

Modern day wuzzies, pah...
