    Thanks chaps. Good thought about the spores.
    Oil has to be delivered by Friday, but my baby belling is coming tomorrow!!!!
  • It is good that you have the Bb to look forward to! You probably got the mould because the heating has been off. We get it occasionally and detox is really good. I hope you feel better soon,

    How miserable still being without oil. We moved into this house one February mid rennovation with no heating. It was awful. Sending warm vibes. Look forward to hearing about baby belling's arrival. I kinda fancied an aga/baby belling combo but Mr Watty wasn't having any of it. Think he was quite right really.
    And another vote for the Dettol mould removal. Really works here.
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!

    Boo hiss to the oil company. Hope the Baby Belling is wonderful. Looking forward to celebrating with you when you post saying your house is warm again. :)

    Thanks Lois. Sausage casserole is cooking on the baby belling. Oil has been delivered. Aga is warming up. The only problem is central heating not coming on but already feels warmer. Doc says i have amongst other things, tennis elbow from lifting tubtrugs of water. Sprung for another one, some coolmix and a water butt, seventy quid. Bargain joules jeans new with tags and postage for DD1 for three quid and rigger boots and warmsocks for the same as my refunded boots so not sure that counts?

    It has hailed and snowed here.
  • Hi Alchemilla, :T to arrival of oil. Hope the baby B works out well. Sounds like a plan to have a back up option.

    I don't suppose there's been an apology from the oil company :o

    Hope you're feeling better
