Good morning everyone. Did we have some rain yesterday!! It was lashing down all day long with gale force winds. I did venture out to run the children and my grandson home, it wasn't very pleasant but luckily the flooding was drivable. 

 

Very odd occurrence this week, the power was off for most of Friday. A real nuisance but I coped. When the power came back on the boiler wouldn't stop heating the radiators! I tried everything. I turned the temperature controller right down, I turned the boiler control to off for central heating and hot water and even unplugged the lead to the boiler. Still it got hotter and hotter. When the temperature in my bedroom reached 27 degrees with the window wide open to the gale at 9 o'clock in desperation I phoned a heating engineer who lives in the village. He told me there has to be a switch near the boiler by law that cuts the power and promised to come by in the morning. I went back and looked again and finally found it. It was a very good feeling to hit that switch! The next morning he found that the boiler was 'all out of whack with the temperature controller'. He managed to get them talking to each other again thank goodness. 

 

Enjoy your day everyone
