   the evening watching TV, that's too chilly for me, the themostat goes to 20.5   
   automatically when the evening starts...

   I keep the temps at the shop no higher than 18C or 19C. People come and go,   
   they wear coats and I move around a lot. But at home it is nicer to have    
   warmer space since I don't move around so much and sit most of the time.   
      
   As for stove, a small portable camping propane stove could work nicely in this   
   situation - that would be nice. But, I have been delinquent to get one. I   
   actually have two modest top-loading wood-stoves in the house (one for lower   
   level and one for upper level), but I have not used them in years and all my   
   wood is used up since then. Maybe I could start burning my furniture. :/
