I live in a flatshare (shortlet) and love my little room. It has old wooden-flooring and a beautiful view to the backyard. Only thing that troubled me was the single-glazed windows. Most time of the year that might be ok, but right now, at night, there is a cold and constant draught right next to my head.
Went to the local hardware shop and got some scrap-wood and nails, tape and clingwrap came from a one-pound-store. Soon a little frame emerged that would fit neatly inside the window surround.
It works perfectly and insulates very well. Square middle-class happiness.
I take it down during the day though...

It makes sense to do that, the other thing you could do is change the glass for pilkington k glass.
