And the next problem...

[ffutures]

Got home this evening to find my hot water / central heating boiler giving a low pressure light. Let in some more water to put the pressure up, valve says it's OK but water isn't coming on. Had to go out to dentist and hope it was OK.

Got home at 5.45 and it wasn't.

Phoned central heating company, after faffing around with their phone system for five minutes or so got told I needed an insurers job number first, which is NOT what the policy document says.

Phoned central heating company. They've closed until the morning...

So no heat tonight, probably not until Thursday. Time to dress up warm.

BALLS!

The same thing happened to me as a teenager while my parents were away on holiday (in Barbados! Bastards!) In Canada, in February. The electric fan/heater saved my life, since I moved into one room on an upper floor and ran it in there with the door closed. It got pretty darned frosty in the rest of the house, let-me-tell-you.
