what year and engine is it????? and has it air con

first thing i would do is feel both the heater hoses under the bonnet at the bulkhead once the engine is up to temperature,

anther possibility is your flap servo/motor/cogs have sheared/striped, this can stop the hot cold flap operating,

Did you not have the water pump replaced when it had the timing belt done? This is usually done at the same time along with the pulleys given the labour costs of replacing the water pump alone at a later date. The pump is a likely candidate if you can circulate the water manually.
