Default Changing Thermostat easy?

How quick does everyone's D24T take to get up to proper temp?

Mine is about 5 minutes to the halfway mark if you are driving it normally (but going easy on the throttle 'til it's warm). But, lately due to roadworks I've been spending the first 10 mins sat in traffic. During this time, just idling, it's just about reaching the quarter.

So, I'm thinking my thermostat might need changing. Or is this normal for a diesel? Is it an easy job to change?
