My House is F***ing Freezing

It feels like it's -5'c in here, I'm sat with the fire on full which is costing me a fortune that i cant afford.
I don,t have double glazing, there's no door between the outside door and the living room, there's no door between the living room and the kitchen and there's a draught blowing up from the cellar.
Has anyone got any advice for keeping a house warm? I dont believe it's so cold, my hands will hardly move.

Space heater? Sitting at a keyboard probably isn't keeping your hands warm any better.

I'm sat with my laptop on my knee to keep my thighs warm.

housefire will keep it warm til it falls over
try to seal off that cellar and put some towels at the base of exterior doors to block any other drafts... cover windows with blankets... block air conditioning and bathroom vents (or close the bathroom's door)
hope that helps

if you have some spare blankets, try hanging them in doorways to stop the flow of air.
Also, if you've got some thick heavy blankets, use them as curtains... they will keep your house much much warmer. Use a few layers if you have to, and keep them close to the window as possible.

Wear a bunch of clothes and some gloves as well. 
It's 57 degrees here in Florida right now. Pretty chilly for me.
