So the new government came with the information yesterday, about subsidies. If I understand correctly, those in the southern parts of the country (incl Stockholm, where I am), will get a kind of ”refund” for the high prices we have paid the latest 12 months. But no subsidies for the prices we are about to pay in the coming months, I think. Yet - maybe that will come later, too.
I don’t want to be hosting, and then be giving guests lots of instructions, and worry that they will be running the washing machine, dishwasher and heating continuously, with the windows open. I simply keep mid-Dec-Feb blocked in my calendar. It will not be worth it for me, hosting in the coldest months. I would hate every day.
