The dreaded scenario for anyone who likes to keep warm in the winter: the central heating has failed completely, and taken the hot water supply out with it. The MAN he say a new boiler required and a lot of money handed over. Not a problem; I'd gladly sign over my pension to avoid having to dart from one tiny "heat island" in the house to another, while wearing several layers of cashmere sweater and a scarf. No, the prob is it won't be fixed until Tuesday, getting on for 72 hours away
One room can be kept warm with a coal-effect fire which is mainly decoration, and 2 tiny fan heaters the MAN kindly gave us before departing.
I'm pleasantly sozzled just at the moment, which is currently is mellowing my feelings. I'm not too sozzled to know I'll have to get up tomorrow morning to an icy house. Yuk...
Look on the bright side, they say. We still have running cold water, and a kettle.
