Winters in Britain are much warmer than in Russia, but subzero values are not uncommon, especially during the height of winter. Residents cannot afford to heat the premises around the clock, as the prices are very high. Therefore, people have to live in apartments where the air temperature does not rise above 18 degrees.
Naturally, at this temperature it is impossible to walk in summer clothes. Therefore, the British have to wear warm sweaters, and sometimes even jackets. They use everything they can to warm their home. Some ways will seem ridiculous to us.
For example, the British are actively using bed heating pads. They keep you warm and keep you warm while you sleep. There are more modern versions of heating pads in stores, but most residents prefer the older ones. They fill a bottle with hot water and put them in bed. And this happens every day.
Men buy special knitted clothes that protect their genitals. For us it seems funny and ridiculous, but for them it is a common thing. It comes to the point that the color of this thing should be identical with the blanket.
But the British shouldn't despair. Scientists have found that high temperatures in a room are hazardous to health. If the room is +24, then there is a high risk of heart problems. +20 won't do much good either. But 16 - 18 is perfect for sound and healthy sleep.
Would you be able to live in an apartment where the air temperature does not rise above 18 degrees? I would definitely not. I love heat very much and I cannot bear the cold in my own home.
