Clare, Have you tried calling your local council or emergency services? They will sometimes provide you with emergency heating. You can,t stay in a house with no heat!! DO NOT use your oven for heat. If it,s a gas one, it can give off lethal fumes. |

Keep your feet warm with thick socks and wear a warm hat as 70% of bodily heat is lost through the head. Hope you get it mended soon. Jo. |

Sorry Clare - too far for hubby to come tonight. Oh, he's a central heating engineer by the way - wasn't suggesting sending him to warm you up :))))) Chrissie |
