hi. fancy saving cash on heating so you can buy music gear for example. i don’t know the maths but as a general thought... a gas fire : 30 percent of the heat is lost up a chimney. the remaining 70 percent goes throughout the room ....but most is eventually lost out the walls, the ceiling and so forth. so many factors to consider, outside temps, size of room, what the person is doing in the room.( sitting or moving).. anywayz, a hot water bottle can be placed up your jumper (in that very small, highly insulated space and so you can enjoy almost all the heat) If your toes get cold you can place a hot water bottle on a pillow on the floor (to insulate it from the ground) and then rest your feet on it. hot water bottles are very efficient and worth having a least one. thermoplastic is best, (fashy is good) as it doesn’t stink of melted rubber. peace. |

ooo and a nice bowl of porridge, at the moment i am in my living room, wearing a sherpa blanket and eating a bowl of porridge, trying to save gas for really cold days |
||||||||

hot porridge body. its one level up to a hot water bottle. |
||||||||

I sometimes use a hot water bottle when its deep winter, i have a wobbly left hand and i scold myself when i fill them did your mum ever say dont wear a coat indoors or you wont feel the benefit when you get outside, i never understood the logic in that |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah its that as the coat warms up after you put it on you think your better off. i prefer to put it on indoors to warm it up and then go out. putting it on just as you go out , nah. at least wait a few mins. you can get a hot water bottle filling stand. i cant be without my hot water bots. |

1.75 coke bottle of hot water (a "hotty") placed between the thighs is great for muscle pain |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Freqy: that stand looks handy for filling, and yes if you insulate yourself with a coat before you leave the house, you create a pocket of warm air around your body Belb: that sounds like a top tip |

we used pop bottles when we went camping a few years back. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i kind of wish we grew winter coast like most other mammals in the winter, my gf has an electric blanket i broke the last one by spilling coffee on it as i liked to read in a warm bed |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i make a hot water bottle for her feet as well, i just get the cold side of the bed, |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
wear a ski suit !! : P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if i get too cold i put my laptop power supply on my legs |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
flipping ek hypie push a quilt up against the window. get thermal under wear get a few coke bottles....or 'fashy' hot bottles. cold sucks. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes i was partially joking, i have an extra blanket on top of the wardrobe for cold nights, the place where i am currently has large high rooms so its takes time to warm up. your right though cold sucks alot, one of my fathers jobs was a cable jointer for manweb when they were still around, he said the older guys used to wee on their hands the ammonia would stop their hands from freezing |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i remember this next time i'm cold. lol. |
||||||||

I ate some once. it was like oats but ground up a bit more. with that or i'm thinking of polyfiller? DIY parrort porridge. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dont know why but i was reminded of this |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
^ then that reminded me of this |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I had a nasty teacher, evil . just pure evil. btw, That pollyfiller joke could have been greater, if i had thought longer, been more determined, typed it up better and added maybe a picture too. : ) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes i know polyfiller, it does looke like ready brek, yes, im not sure if it happens so much now but the teaching profession definitely used to attract the odd nutter, I had a teacher called Mr Eshelby the gym teacher who used to throw pens at your head if your talked |
||||||||
|

|
my fave sweets, crap ad, but y gotta try em if y get a chance. my fave is rhubarb custard and ginger and the cocoa one. |

he wore sprinting short, and a 70s vest and had a mustache, he looked like an east german footballer, his claim to fame was being a on the books as a reserve player at QPR, he was mildly psychotic |

one used to scream in my face,I was only 5 years old. all i did was move in the wrong direction. she was old, she knew she would be dead before the kids grew old enough to get her back. really. that's how bad she was. screaming is worse than a slap. |

|
never made the team so wanted you and your class to suffer. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the woman 50 seconds in is very attractive, |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes a bit of a sadist, sorry to hear about your screaming teacher, i had a RE teacher, a female vicar shout at me for 10 minutes infront of the class, because i accidentally said yes sir rather than yes miss |

the bags are cheaper by weight than the bars. but addictive ...but better to be addicted to dates and cashews than chocolate bars |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
yes its true, im so hooked on sugar that when i made coffee without sugar i found it very bitter, its rearranges your taste buds |
||||||||

10 mins jesus. if only we could go back with no fear to just walk out and go home. they didnt have rights to detain us did they? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no i dont think so, when i hit puberty i would answer back or walk out but i was about 13 at the time so i just said nothing to a stream of abuse, |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i wanna go back , and not go into school. just climb trees and eat berries. |
||||||||
|
|

i used to give myself haircuts with the scissors, i liked primary school very much, good times, just sitting on a bean bag in the library reading books |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I cut my hair's' with a scissor too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
havent sat on a bean bag for yonks |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
yes we got rid of ours, i need to get a new one and spend a bit less time on the puter, |
||||||||

this is a true story of my day i was watching spider man today, I think he had some high tech on the go under the mask...he had a belt of mobile devices too and maybe special VR glasses? looked pretty decent stuff....he also had a Mc donalds sign on a stick saying "free burga" or something?.. I think he was in a VR office, he looked really messed up tho, the suit did not fit ...but he was chating away...maybe performing business deals...either that or he was insane? y' can never tell these days...in the old days if people walked past you chating by themselves you knew. Now they could be high flying business mens in VR office environments. lol : ) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i always freak out when i see people chundering away to themselves walking along, then i realise they are chatting to their hands free mobile, ] I kind of want a VR helmet to play Elite dangerous on, but they are prohibitively expensive, also i feel like if i get one i will be flying around pluto when i should be cooking tea or something |
||||||||

We need to stay in the real world and make sure no one can pull the plug on us. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, i dont want to isolate myself anymore than i necessary, i dont want to buy crap thats unnecessary, a virtual bean bag would be interesting though |
||||||||

some winters ago i insulated my windowsills with cheapo-jizz and put some cloth down at my entrance door. filling up your heaters with the right amount of water and venting them also had huge effects on heating. wearing a wollen inside is such an immense improvement over sweat shirts aswell. then i was lucky i got woollen scarf, beanie and gauntlets from my tailor gf, now im always snug as a bug :) oh and drinking hot stuffz like fresh ginger tea and other teas keep you warm and healthy all year round! |
