Yeah I got to 70 as well, pretty sure that's the lot.

But it just occurred to me they might have cut the board in half diagonally... my head hurts

I make it 50 in that case. I'll stop there, don't want to be looking into oblique cuts aaaargh.

70 is correct.

Can you change COLD into HEAT in 4 moves, changing one letter at a time?

Yes. Yes I can.

Me too, but I expect there are variations on a theme.

I was chilly so I grabbed a hat.
I got distracted and sat with it in my hand for a while.
I put the hat where it belonged.
And then I was nice and toasty.
