Mornings! Coffee for me here please, thanks! Another lovely day!
Speaking to my Mother the other day, she insists she is able to keep the house cool by keeping all the curtains, windows and the doors shut.Does anyone else do that?
I keep the curtains closed when the sun is shining directly on those windows, but have the windows open at the front and back of the house. This creates a breeze through the house.
Flashback time!Open the fridge and freezer doors to let some coolness in

I'm sure there are theories and anecdotes to prove and disprove your Mother's system but I need more first. I've always got at least one window open all year round. Currently sitting in the path of a lovely breeze going between the windows by my desk and the garden door. Dog's outside in the garden - the grass looks only marginally healthier than the grass in the paddock.
Its what we do, and it works for us.
