40 years ago a huge number of people didn't have central heating and even my last tiny house in Hertfordshire that I sold in 1990 didn't. No double glazing or wall insulation either.

"Be like" - what a vile American phrase!

@alistairewen9558 If you were lucky! At Mum & Dads house we just had a small fire in the living room and a "Sadia" electric heater for the hot water in the kitchen.

@dontuno My first two places didn't have fireplaces, 1st a studio flat built in around 1983 (not even a gas supply) & the 2nd one bed starter home, built late70s. None of the houses on that estate had gas or fire places.

It is so funny that the feeble gen Z lot cannot get their heads round the normal standard of living even back in the 60s. It really is time for the great reset as current expectations are just not realistic nor sustainable. We have been fooling ourselves with artificially low prices for everything at the cost of our own (UK) economy. Well, it has come along to bite us now.
