Draughty windows

my draughty windows are no more! and the house is now like a furnace   got fed up with the constant gale force winds on the back of my neck so went out and got some storm guard window film today.
I must admit it was easy to fit even for a ham fisted short temperd git like me   I was expecting there to be big crushed up balls of the stuff all over the house but no... not even one rage from me, a world first.

the only down side... both dogs are blowing theyre coats and a couple of bits have some rather annoying dog hair stuck to the inside. I cant get at them now... and they are going to sit there and annoy me until i take it down next year  

well worth it for just over £8 for six square meters of the stuff with fixing tape. both rooms i have done are really quite a bit warmer.

Ooh sounds a fab idea and if its done the trick great! I detest draughty windows  

That's fab nath, nothing worse then a draft

Gotta keep warm! Xx

haha ours are draughty they are crappy old single pained wooden windows but can't say i'm that bothered that's renting for you!

Why is it that old people are always very conserned about drafts, my Mum is always asking me when I go to visit if I'm in a draft  

Glad you got your windows sorted Nathan, it looks like there could be some snow on the way down by the end of this week    

Dogs will love the snow. Now its actually warm in here both have toddled off and are sleeping on the stairs lol.
The house is fairly new but I think they put some cheap * aluminum framed windows in which have about a 7 mm gap in some places. ..
Lil buggers have been blowing coats for a few weeks now getting ready for winter so I cant do anything without dog hair in it.... will post a pic of 2 days worth in a sec. Not sure why its bugging me so much but that hair on the inside is annoying. Cant do anything about it now though..

Two days worth in the living room only... when I do the stairs and bedrooms I can nearly make a new dog lol lighter for scale. You can imagin what my clothes look like  

What's the plastic stuff called, Nathan? I wouldn't mind trying some of that for Eleanor's room - it's quite draughty!

Storm guard you can get from homebase for £8 and its fantastic def recomend it. Just dont worry about wrinkles as they all go when you put hair dryer on it. In fact put it on loose and use the dryer to shrink it

Ignore the first comment. Just clean up and it sticks fine giving an air tight seal
