    Be careful with it. Your problem will probably be the regulator or valve has had water in them and now the water has frozen, causing the blockage. Best to have a top on new bottles so water does not enter them, even a small plastic bag held on with rubber band. Most gases themselves will only freeze at temperatures only seen or possible in Antartica.
    We have it every time its minus temps, believe me we have tried everything to stop it, we left taps trickling, learnt from the past, but if there is alot of burst pipes again the pressure will drop and will be like last time
    Does anyone use an electric clothes airer please? Am contemplating getting one but not sure which is best? Would appreciate opinions, thanks x

    :( spoke too soon.
    DS in A&E with nephew. Jaundice and weight loss issues
    Yesterday Midwife said was ok.
    Praying he is ok
    Go cat he is beautiful. I'm sorry to hear he is jaundiced, dgd had this and dd had to go back onto the children's ward twice with her. Tbh it gave her a bit of a rest with support from the nurses. She looked so sweet in the little incubator with her eye patch on. They are in the best place but its a very worrying time fir you all.

    We have a customer who swears by the Lakeland one each time she comes in she says have you bought that airer yet? I have an over the door airer which I love but its in the dinning room and it does cause a lot of condensation.

    How are you Di?
    Have you thought about a dehumidifier? best £100 odd we spent, also helps to dry washing quicker, we have it on 24/7 in the winter, tbh i only dry washing inside about once/twice a week though

    Hi bubbs I'm finally starting to feel a bit better thank you. Yes I've heard dehumidifiers are good I just wouldn't Want to have to look at one. I try not to dry washing inside myself but at the moment there's no other option.
    It's dh surprise meal today. I've told him I've got cabin fever and I need to go out. A meal for ten followed by 10ish of his friends coming afterwards should be good if all goes to plan.
    Next problem do I let him take the car which means he'll havevto walk to get it in the morning. I don't think I'll convince him to get a taxi he will think I'm nuts its only two minutes away. It's the pub where dd works but she's had the day off and she'll be there with dgd.

    Maybe you can "get" a phone call from dd telling you the car park is too icy and suggesting you use a taxi?
    What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare
