Some people put their carpet BELOW the floor...

The onslaught of cold weather has bullied us into fitting some sheep's wool insulation. It's a wonderful product we ordered from Black Mountain Insulation. It isn't dusty, there are no nasty glass fibres, there's no need for gloves, you can tear it easily, and it smells like grandad's pullover or... erm... sheep.

We simply stapled netting between the joists, and rolled the wool on top. I feel warmer already, although it might be all the late night work (note the time in the third photo).
