I wish somebody would bleed the radiators at school. I suspect they might not be very happy if I did it myself, though.
Do you know anyone who's bereaved? Point them to https://www.AtaLoss.org which does for bereavement support what MSE does for financial services, providing links to support organisations relevant to the circumstances of the loss & the local area. (Link permitted by forum team)

It is good when they make a speedy recovery like that. Hope she feels well enough to enjoy her weekend. And that you don't return to too much chaos on Monday.
All the best and well done on the skirting cleaning,
