I'm sure you've all been hearing the howling winds these past few weeks! It's certainly been keeping me up at night. The drafts are quite frankly ridiculous and I know with these old tenements you know what you're getting into, but I'm at my wits end! Has anyone got any tips on keeping out those gusts??

Depends where the wind is coming into your flat. If it's Windows I used some rubber bought from B&Q for about a tenner - flat is alot warmer now. If you have trickle vents shut them over while it's really windy and open back up when it dies away to keep the air flowing through.

I would suggest home energy Scotland they have information on their website and a telephone helpline as well

I read somewhere about putting bubble wrap on the windows, it acts as insulation
