Well, for starters - why do you need to heat your house? Plenty of people on here, who don't receive any benefits manage just fine - so what's your reason? You could get everyone into one room - that'll make the temperature rise quite a bit. Sleeping bags/quilts/duvets/etc are also good, as is extra clothes.From Poland...with love.
They are (they're) sitting on the floor.
Their books are lying on the floor.
The books are sitting just there on the floor.0 -
yes of course there is always a risk. There's a risk with most things in life I'm afraid. But tampering with things is when the problems start. You do what you like! i was merely trying to make you aware of the dangers.0

we are not in the 1960 mate this is 2008 , why do i need to heat the house well common sense tell's you you need to keep warm to have a healty life ive got 7 kids one is 2 weeks old , one at 11 mths old then 2 years 4 years ,2 at 6 years and one at 9 years , ive got heart disease and cant work and my wife care's for us all .
oh and no thanks for telling me to turn boiler up as more efficent so far since 7:50 pm till 1:00pm today we have used £9.67 in gas yes i agree the house is wormmer but my pocket is more empty and getting worse .
im going to rip up carpets and underlay and cover floors in plastic sheets see if that helps ive moved the stat from the hallway to the kitchen as hallway is coldest place and it was near front door so wouldnt be helping other than getting cavity wall and new double glazing fitted thats all i can do .
so looks like it will iver be food or heating and as we have a baby of 2 weeks it will be heating .
if there wasnt so many greedy people just trying to make millions in profits maybe we wouldnt be in this mess :mad:0 -

I hope so.
Going by your username is also seems you have an Escort RS Turbo?!
Edit: Greedy people trying to make profits? That's what business is about. You have 7 kids, including a 2 week old youngun and you're both on benefits without either of you working...I'll say no more.
