warm places for the elderly to go to because they are not getting the winter fuel payment

A man was supposed to be working in my garden today, but as it was barely above freezing, I suggested he come when it is warmer, as I do not want to be responsible for his hypothermia.

When it is in minus figures, I leave the heating on low overnight, as paying that cost would be cheaper than replacing burst pipes.

Keir and Rachel have a lot to answer for but neither cares.

Does your friend's neighbour have a timer on her boiler, surfingsal?

If so, could your friend set it for her to come on at, say, 4pm? The cost of fuel has gone down so the neighbour should be reassured that she can put thd heating on.

I am sitting in about 45 degrees fahrenheit at the moment.
It was the same in the bedroom on rising.
But I am OK.
I will put heating on about 7.30 until about midnight.
It rises to about 58 degrees at the moment.
Maybe have a shallow bath to warm up.
Have a lot of unavoidable outgoings at the moment.
Am sitting here across a 2 seater with 6 layers on top half also gloves hat and snood.
It must be difficult for older or disabled people.
I would urge them to put the heating on and hang the cost.
It's hardly a luxury frivolous expenditure.
Get into debt if need be.
Make sure they are on the priority services register.
Those who don't have much heating are sensible to go elsewhere if they can.
Else maybe purchase oil filled radiator and big hoody.
Poundstretcher have them for 15 pound currently.
