Living in a period property comes with all sorts of quirks, some good and some, well, less than ideal. I live in an early Victorian flat which is blessed with lots of windows that reach near the top of the high ceilings. However, while the light they let in is great, they're single-glazed and uneven, so you can feel draughts coming in on all but the most calm of days.
As I'm renting, I don't have the option of replacing the windows, so I've had to be a bit creative when thinking of ways to try and keep the place warm this particularly stormy winter. One day, after scouring the internet for new ideas and hacks to try, I stumbled across insulation tape and ordered it without a second thought.
