And still pitch black, I am grateful and fortunate to have the luxury of a car with heated seats for the commute to work. A busy day at work with the weekly shopping completed on my way home, including a “new” wall clock (to replace the non functional one in the living room) for only £3.99 from the help the aged shop “.
On my return home I read the messages on my phone that had been pinging for the last few miles of my journey. The evening carer had reported that the house had no heating or hot water and Auntie was in the front room with a hot cup of tea and wrapped in a blanket.
I tried several resets to no avail before ringing a plumber who suggested several things. The condensate overflow pipe had frozen, problem solved and hotness restored.
