But not a new one charly. My old lady used the same methods back after the war when we lived on Hope Street. Used old eiderdowns which she sewed across to keep the filling in place - then the old man tacked them to the top of the sash casement. Worked a treat seeing as we had no heating upstairs at all unless one lit the fire in the bedroom - but one had to afford coal to do that. Huh - coal!! Well i'll go t' bottom of ower stairs so a will. Wink

Yes, it says it was in the time when the guy was a child and lived in an old stone house, so I knew it wasn't a new idea.
I'd never heard of it though and thought it was a good idea in this time of high fuel bills.
