After my success answering Annec's question, its my turn. However, I’m not clever enough for an ‘Italian’ question – so I’ll go for one with a ‘Greek’ connection insteadI’m a ‘sad’ man who likes numbers.

Didn't think the offer would last long - glad I got it though [that sounds selfish - probably is!] --------------- " ......... hope the queuing system works efficiently - and that roads from the ports don't get clogged with the drive-off traffic." There will definitely be a case for turning left at the docks exit onto the road up the [steepish] hill and back to London on the old A2, thus avoiding the crush through Dover itself

"I'd be thinking about lining the walls with something that didn't get so cold." The normal solution would be to either line the walls with insulated plasterboard or construct a 'stud' wall against the existing walls Either method would usually involve using professionals and would knock up to about 100mm/wall off of the size of the room -and things like power points and switches will need moving. If its just a 'small' wall that is the problem, you could cover it with dense cork floor tiles [and make it a pin board!]
