I used to live in a house with no central heating.. I make my kids do the same for much of the time now..

Lots of jumpers, layers and lots of blankets etc on the beds..

I will put the heating on but rarely.

Bed warming pans in the olden days or a hot water bottle nowadays. What I tend to do is lie on top of my bed for a bit. That way when I get in. Its not that bad and I'll have a hot water bottle, which is weird as I tend to kick it out of bed within the hour of sleeping as I feel really warm

Do they sell jumpers that will cook my food or heat up my shower or do I just become a hobo open fire in a field

We still have a open fire we just throw £5 notes on it its cheaper than buying coal.
