Hmm, thats still quite a big place to heat I'm guessing Martin? And being a semi (lol... 
) you dont get heat from anywhere else either. I might be completely wrong but I'd assume a flat surrounded by others would sort of share their heat as well, if that makes sense lol. My Dads been in 2 different small, 2 bed flats now and they're always boiling lol, yet he barely uses the heating as theres not often people at home (he works nights and his wife/stepson are out during the day).
Also forgot about a boiler using gas...we have an emmersion heater which is a terrible idea......basically it burns electric most of the night on the cheap(er) rate, and water is cold by about 3pm anyway! Along with the storage heaters that the place was built with (again, burn electric all night and are cold before tea time! Got rid of them now anyway, for oil filled plug in heaters) then it makes this place quite expensive for electricity, so gas might be more efficient.
Starting to think this might not be viable now tbh though, I'd have to be earning about a grand a month to keep it going and I guess thats not likely from p/t shelf stacking or something. Sigh...
