Blowing hot air?

Hi my heating in my 16v is blowing hot air when the dial is turned to cold. Have searched briefly but can only find problems with not blowing hot hair. Anyone have any ideas? easy to fix? Im a novice but want to start doing my own work on my car (with the help of my old man)
Cheers

Could be a dodgy heater matrix then

spot on. I wouldnt say it was thermostat.
Id say dodgy heater matrix. Sounds like bypass valves are buggered.
