    When we moved into this house the boiler needed topping up regularly [just a tap thing that needed turning on and then off when the level rose]. It was never suggested there was a leak though. What can you try next?

    Sorry you are feeling so tired, is it still coughing keeping you awake?

    I think some shade of green is good too for a fence
