I can remember hot water bottles, going to bed in thick tights and the ice on the inside of the bedroom windows as well. In winter we were all huddled around a coal fire. I used to do my homework sitting in bed with my coat on in an uheated bedrooml. I have no heating in the bedrooms and only heat the living room as it is. I have arthritis so cant allow the temperature to drop too much. But there are days when I have sat at the computer in a thick furry ponsho with tights underneath trousers.
Young people today walk around in shorts and thin strappy tops and need the house heared like the tropics.
