I miss a day and it's all going on chez SA! I'm glad the appointments are made, though it must be a worry. My Dh has inherited moles galore and I try to keep an eye on them to the point of the occasional photo of his back in case they've sneakily changed. So far so good, but of course they are always worth some expert opinion.
I hope the kitten (now DC2?) has fun but doesn't overdo it. Would it help if the older cat goes out first?I think a bit of sunshine is good for frugal living. (Cranky40)

Good that Mr SA is getting some health check ups - must be a worry for you both though.
my cats are conditioned to come home when the dreamies pot is shaken vigorously ... well they are now Lidlee dreamie style snacks but I haven't told the cats that.4 -
Morning all 😊
I’m having to WFH again today as there was no hot water for a shower this morning and the heating hadn’t come on 😩 I’m not Wim Hof so no plans to have a cold shower and certainly not going into the office without having a shower. Rang BG and they think it’s the water pressure on the boiler dropped too low. There’s a £60 excess if they come out so I decided to try and sort it out myself first via a You Tube tutorial. If I can’t do it then I’ll have to cough up the £60. BG assured me it’s easy to do - we shall see 😆

It's usually really easy to do, mine is just a lever under the boiler you pull , like you I you tubed it.Life is an adventure, never stop exploring.3

My boiler had a black knob that you turned & you could hear the water going in & the boiler just came on with no other fiddling.

It came back on so I got my shower but the pressure is still showing as slightly below 1 when it should be around 1.5 apparently.
It should be NSD 3/12. I need to go to Lidl but that can wait until tomorrow on my way home from the office.Exercise will be lunchtime dog walking and a live WW Pilates class.Trying another new recipe tonight from an old Good Food magazine - veg sausage pasta bake.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)3 -
