Storage heaters are fucking terrible, they store energy all day and then deliver an hours heat in the evening if you are lucky. I had to cope with them for 3 years and damn near died of a chest infection one winter it got so bad, that is when I invested in my Delonghi oil heater and it served me bloody well for the 18 months or so that I needed it.

Oh and I don't stalk Ez, we just have an understanding. ;)

I've had enough of storage heaters as well. They break down, elements fail, use loads of electric and don't give out the heat when you want it.

I've priced up some panel heaters and can do the whole house for £350.

This PDF might help with working out just what heating you need for each room based on room size, external walls and cavity insulation.

Thats all well and good, with your numbers and fancy pants "pee dee eff documentations", but what we really need is pictures!


BIG PICTURES!

There was no mention of stalking!

Sitting on someones window ledge, looking through the window at a young lady is generally considered stalking, you have a serious mental health issue young man! :p

You fucking love Clive :D I was just up seeing him as a matter of fact.
And I'd go with the sex option, sex warms you up, and naked spoons, which leads to sex, its impossible not too, therefore just keeps looping, free warmth and happy times really.

Cliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiive \o/ clive rocks, clive is da man!

I'd go for some sexual spooning (i.e. spooning with serious back proddage) but the only potential spoonees in HQ atm are a frog, 2 snails and the g/pigs...I draw the line at lesbian spooning with Tinkerbelle and Errol is a eunach :(

woe is fucking me tbh!

Holy crap, I tell you what you can really notice the difference and how drafty my frigging windows are!

I taped the plastic over the windows except one in bedroom and lounge so can still open them. Those ones I half taped and then pinned the rest of the way round but the breeze coming through em, jesus no wonder I was frozen lol!

Those blankets EAT electricity if you aren't careful, much better off with a hot water bottle as they retain the heat for hours. Invest in a good duvet as well, I wouldn't be without my feather and down duvets. :p

I have a terror of hot water bottles tbh they perish from the inside so you can't tell when they're about to broil you in your sleep. Have an excellent duvet, 3 blankets and an emergency guinea pig or two if needed.

There'll be no more dancing about in my underwear until, oh say June/July, am officially in unattractive (but warm) clothing mode now!
