Remember those well. Bathed and then wrapped up in a towel to sit in front of it. Also eating breakfast in the morning in front of it before school. This was before the economy 7 storage heaters, which if I remember correctly were an absolute waste of time !

As a child whilst on family holiday in Keswick, I grabbed a penny off my dad and ventured into the public loos, penny went in, I used the loo but the bloody door would not open and I was stuck inside, eventually my dad came looking for me and had to put another penny in to free me. I've had a public loo phobia ever since.
Oh no it isn't!
In the 1930’s there was an un-earthed 15 amp 2-pin socket in our bathroom specifically for such an electric fire. One day a 2-year old cousin of mine was left sitting on his potty close to it, and he found a bent Kirby grip on the floor. When he pushed the ends into the socket, the neutral must have connected first, because the main fuse blew and he was unharmed. Phew!
