The UK’s houses are still designed to retain heat. In an age of global warming, that needs to change.

    Same here, it gets unbearable - I sympathise with you. We have roof windows and last summer during the heatwave I think we touched 36°c inside. I’m dreading what might be to come this year. On the flip side in winter it was 8°c at times…Swings and roundabouts, right?

      You beat my score! It got up to 33 in here last year. At my previous house I almost always managed to keep it around 20ish and had the thermostat set to 18 in the winter, so it was a bit of a fucking shock to the system.
