Only(!) day three....

18th April 2014
A bad night's sleep (poor curtains and a very full brain, refusing to shut up), followed by a lovely relaxed morning with breakfast in bed, then off to St Barnabas for their morning service. It was lovely to see their new updated building.

We came back and had a lovely lunch with Amanda, and then in the afternoon the very kind British Gas man came round, and condemned our fire! He then inspected the hob, and found it had been plumbed in with flexible pipe, normally used for plumbing in water! He said we can use it for a short period of time, but advised us to turn off the supply after every use, and get it replaced ASAP.

Matt went out and bought an electric fire from the local trade counter - and upon giving our address received the response, " we've got that address on our account - we're owed money by them!" I have a feeling that this is going to be a repeating theme...

We were joined for a few hours by Becky and little Munns, and whilst the latter was asleep, Becky enthusiastically joined our parlour game of ripping apart whichever bit of wall one fancies!  We've a nice pile in the front garden now ready for the skip when it arrives on Tuesday.

We diced with death to heat up dinner - aka turning the hob on to cook pasta, and then crawled to bed, with cardboard on the windows to see if that helps on the sleep front...
