It's not often I dip into this thread, but just a quick note to say I hope you're coping ok @Topscooby, I know this month has been a very difficult one for you outside the forum.

@Bridlington1

Many thanks for your kind words…it is very much appreciated 🙏

At the moment everyday brings its own challenges and I’m just dealing with everything as best I can. Needless to say, some days are better than others.

Bless you, yes it will be challenging, losing your wife of 35 years is a massive blow, to quote the late Queen Elizabeth II, "grief is the price we pay for love". You've just got to take each day as it comes and be gentle with yourself.

I'm having an ASHP fitted in Sept so won't be making target this year unless something drastic changes, but at least I have the savings to be able to do it, as my boiler has been kaput since March
