We have heat!

The heating was switched back on at 5.45 this evening... and it feels wonderful! Thank you for all your kind comments offering encouragement, sympathy and help which were heart warming if not toe warming! Normal blogging will be resumed as soon as I've cleared the backlog of washing.

Oh thank goodness! I popped by your blog this afternoon but didn't leave a comment. I'd just come by to sympathise and am very very happy to find you're already thawing out!

Now, if I were you I'd go and perch my bum on the radiator and savour the miracle of central heating!!
