No
these are at least 10 years old, and they are frankly crap - at least, they are lovely and warm between the hours of, say, midnight and about 2pm, but then they start getting cold, so by the time I get home from work they are lukewarm at best (even if you turn the output down to '1') and certainly at no point do they give off enough heat to make my flat warm.

Sucks
We just put up with the cold last winter, and my flatmate used hot water bottles quite a lot. This winter I'm just wearing a baselayer under my t-shirt.

I can't sleep if I'm cold
When it was uberchilly last week there were 8 layers between my skin and the outside, and I was still frozen. I could even see my breath in the air - that's how shit these fucking storage heaters are.

You got yourself home yet, or are you still cuddling up to a bunsen burner?

Have you eaten yet?

( girlinthehole, Thu 9 Dec 2010, 22:09, Reply)

Yeah.
I went to the supermarket and the sausages stood out as being well worth buying.

So I had them, with mash and veg and some onion gravy.

*peers shamefacedly in to bowl*
erm...baked beans with cheese, some sort of salami stuff, and 2 fried eggs. I'd kill for some bacon and some mushrooms but I don't have any, so I'm basically having a student fryup.

You need to get yourself to the shops berk.

I do, for sure
tomorrow is crumble night though, and I've got stuff in for that!

No!!!
Be strong berk. BE STRONG.

I don't want you to crumble, break down and cry.

Go on now, go. Walk out the door.... Just turn around now...

You're not welcome any more?
You won't be if you keep making puns. I'm having pear and chocolate crumble OR tayberry and apple, I haven't decided yet. I might make a little one of each...

Selma doesn't like the puns.
