We just looked at the thermostat and it is 16.1C, blanket day for us, and we’re closing all the curtains on the north side of the house to keep the heat in a bit better. We’ve also got a curtain behind the front door to insulate the hallway a bit.

You can buy cheap door brushes that stick to the door edge which work wonders at keeping air out
