gas is great for drying clothes.

This is going to be one of the problems of finding a nice extra heater too. They're all fucking horrible looking.

go for the whole "Pub Smoking Garden But In A Bedroom" sort of vibe

I don't know what you're fucking laughing about. You'll be shivering eating your dinner on Friday night (you just don't know about it yet )

Argos

supress the part of your brain going "18 QUID!!! there is NO WAY this thing is safe"

Haha, I'd have to get one of those mirrors with the light bulbs all around. Would this give that 'wind in your hair' effect Tyra is always talking about?

our oil ran out the other day and i kept warm by draping the cat across my shoulders and drinking hot whiskey.
that's probably not a long-term solution, but it was certainly amusing while it lasted.

 

[dowel]

are your windows huge? high ceilings? brrrr.
Get heavy lined curtains, bargain basement Clerys/arnotts.tkmaxx, lots of heat escapes out through glass.

Irish housing is basically shoddy with little or no insulation. Flamin' breezy blocks can fck off. It's a conspiracy between contractors and the esb/gas showers I'm sure!ninjaaaa

fan heaters are kak they dry up the air way too much. get one of these and hide it behind a chair

We got an oil-filled electric radiator for a real cold room once and it worked well.

With storage heaters there's usually an "input" and an "output" knob - the input controls the current going into the heater and how hot it gets at, the output controls the flow of air past the heater and therefore the transfer of heat from the heater to the air. Turn up the input to max, turn the output down to minimum when you're not there and when you're going to bed and then back up again when you're in the room. Takes a while to get it right, but we lived in a place with just storage heaters for a while and it was fine once we got the hang of it

When you get some more oil I can foresee a thread entitled 'how to get rid of an air lock?'.
