It is worrying me that I am freezing and sat under a duvet again and it is July, how are we going to cope in January. We keep having to put the heating on, but as it is oil central heating we want to use it as little as possible.
It must be cold as my medication makes me feel hot all the time.
We have a real fire in the room where we sit in the evening, we have been using wood and it does not seem to provide much heat. People who have real fires what do you put on them? How do you keep them going?
The dining room has a woodburner which apparantly blasts out quite a bit of heat but we dont spend much time in there, although maybe when the furniture arrives we will.
There is no double glazing and some stone floors so there is little insulation.
It is a lovely house but so cold, what can we do.
