marguicha @marguicha (230350) • Chile 4 Aug 16

I haven´t had a hot water bottle for a long time. I changed them years ago for a rice pad that you heat in the microwave oven. It is better in case your back hurts so I love it. But I found a hot water bottle at my mother´s house...

TheIrishClog @TheIrishClog (985) • Ireland 27 Feb 12

Although it's not nearly as cold here as it is in many other countries, as a cold person with cold hands, feet and nose, I'm sitting here today shivering. We have no home heating oil at the moment as we simply can't afford it....

vegegirl @vegegirl (828) • Australia 19 Aug 08

It is pretty cold here at the moment and I like to take a hot water bottle to bed with me. When I was younger and lived down south I think we had hot water bottles, but I don't use them now. I think it is better for the...

Do you use a hot water bottle in winter?

guybrush @guybrush (4658) • Australia 30 Jun 08
