  • Phone or email a local double glazing firm, they'll be able to send a technician round to see if it's fixable (problem just needs new hinges) or if it need replacing.

    Have e mailed someone who gets recommended a lot on my local group. Hopefully that makes him good and not someone with lots of mates on the group!!

  • I did nothing I wanted to do today. 

    I did go shopping, had to park in hell, did about a million loads of washing (ok I do need clean clothes), half cleaned out the piggies, cooked dinner, changed mum's bed, repotted a plant, cleaned the kitchen, made lunch, made tea, run the dishwasher three times and cleaned the floor. 

    I wanted to tackle the mess that is the conservatory. Next weekend I don't need to cook so much. But I am going out. We shall see.

    Have you tried putting a thermometer near where the thermostat is.  Mine started out (many years ago) pretty accurate but as the years went on it got further & further out.  I have got one of those moveable ones now & it is fairly accurate but sits next to a thermometer that also says the % humidity.
  • Oh Buffy, I’m so sorry. 
    Are you in a union to contact them for advice? X

    Yes, oddly after something similar happened to a friend at work I suddenly felt the urge to join up again!
