Re: Saving on Heating Bills
No Bob, it isn't pathetic, but I can think of other ways to warm your hands rather than use your hot water which is valuable.If you run hot water over very cold hands, you're risking chillblains so why not pop a towel over your radiators, then place your hands on that until they warm up? Or, better still, allow them to warm up naturally. In a warm home it shouldn't take more than 5 minutes before they're all toasty again.
Do you not wear gloves?

I didn't mean any offence.

Was just trying to be helpful, but I do see the sarcasm in your reply.I didn't mean any offence.
