Reply to comment by markedasred in LPT: To heat yourself during the winter, have a hot water bottle on your legs while sitting down doing your work, it will conduct through the rest of your body and will heat you almost the same as a heater would do at a small fraction of the cost. Energy prices are far too much, be safe this winter by LightConquersDark_

Helps alot, I usually have my hood up on my hoodie jumper. Aside from that, another one i like to use is while sleeping, I put a hot water bottle under the covers, the insulation from the blanket will keep it super cosy under the covers for the whole night.

I used to do that and had two major dissasters occurring during the night when the water bottle ripped from the side. Now I use microwave seed cushions.

I'm sorry those accidents happened to you! Glad you found a good solution.

I do hot-water bottle under the covers near my feet in severely cold weather. If I can get my feet warm, the rest of me will be warm.

I do the same, leave it near my feet under the blanket. When you go to bed you must be 100% sure the cap is screwed on correctly, also be sure you got hold of a hot water bottle from a respectable brand, and you will have no issues.
