    See, we can look back on those times with fondness - how many people who haven't been in debt and found MSE can say the same. What we have is truly speshul :rotfl:

    Is is *possible* to overdo it on the Gin?

    So, today I wake up to a cold house because my boiler doesn't work - the lights are on but no warmth producing efforts are being made. Am about to google for an instruction manual online to see if the error code that is being shown is something that I can rectify myself.....otherwise, it is going to be a phone call to the plumber and hope that he can sort it out in the next few days.

    There's always something!

    Have a good day everyone - I have masses to do, including a lesson to write for me to teach on Saturday, and some DIY to get on with, plus a run/walk at 9am.

    Good morning all,

    Well the bingo & scratchies were good while it lasted, but it's nice that time has moved on and so have we.

    I like the wardrobe, and making time for 'me' on the thread at the moment, and it's life audit aspect. It's nice how the thread changes over time.

    Sorry to hear about the boiler Hypno, hope the error code isn't an expensive one.

    Enjoy your run/walk.

    Hmmm.....have found the error code - "water pressure sensor and/or pump defective".

    That doesn't sound cheap!

    Oh well, will call the plumber later today and see what he says.
