Just throwing out some numbers re a few comments above relating to temps.
Currently wfh in a 1930's suburban semi - presently 14C where I'm sat right now, 9C in bedroom, 3C in attic (turbo/basic gym setup there), 12C in kitchen... Costs me a tenner a day to keep the place close to comfortable, so yeah fuck that, it's extra hoodys/base layers time.
Mix of original single pane windows (stained glass), and dodgy white upvc double glazing (at least a few decades old). No way do I have the £££ needed to address the situation.
I did a wee lol at the comment above that houses should be kept above 15C. I can dream... But yeah fuck the cold, damp UK and it's shitty old housing lol I can see my own breath at the mo, and barely feel my finger tips typing.
