Ways to keep warm

A bit late I know but it was the PC`s flyer about Warm Welcome survey which got me thinking.

Keep the curtains drawn
Only heat one room - the kitchen will warm up when you cook
Turn down radiators in other rooms
Make hot drinks to keep in a flask
EXERCISE, just invent your own or watch on line
Wear extra thin layers, better than a coat
Wear gloves in the house if you have to
Use a hot water bottle to cuddle during the day
Take a hot water bottle to bed and pile coats on the bed if necessary
Take a hot drink in a flask up to bed
Make porridge in a flask to be ready in the morning - 80g porridge oats to 400ml milk/water (3oz porridge to 13 1/2floz) and sugar to taste.  You need a lot more liquid compared to normal, as I found out!!

It`s not rocket science, and it is getting warmer anyway!
