Is there any fluid in your cooling system??

 

[samjessop29]

most likely rusty water

i had this problem in my zetec s think was heater control valve

Could be a knackered heater matrix, what does the temperature gauge say, is it a bit crap on fuel?

Start with checking the coolant is topped up or flush it all out & put new stuff in along with using a hosepipe to flush each pipe out as the ones going into the car could be blocked & stopping the coolant getting to the heater matrix.
If the water temp isn't getting up to proper operating temperature, your thermostat could be buggered & stuck open but tbh, in your situation I'd do all of the above anyway just for peace of mind & hope that the heater matrix is fine
