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. 
An easy one now that's just right for November
Can you change COLD into HEAT in 4 moves, changing one letter at a time?

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.
Formerly self-contained, but expanding my gardening horizons beyond pots!
