Windy or what!

Blimey it was windy last night and the rain hat on the chimney was sitting on the towpath this morning (luckily).

For anyone who is interested in what is going on with our heating, the parts are still on order with Fernwood our boat builder, and should be arriving the early part of next week. The insurance company have been very good and are still investigating the case. Because the central heating use to warm up the hot water in the morning we are finding that we have to now run the engine for three hours a day. An hour and a half in the morning and again in the afternoon.

With another cold spell looming up on us we will have to stock up with wood and other fuel sources, so Del was out early chopping up the wood we found the other day. Al made a cake and then we sat and listened to Pick of the Pops in the afternoon with tea and that cake...

In the evening it was Bruce Springsteen night on BBC 4..........

Hi, I have been following your Blog and I wanted to say where I work on a static caravan park, the radiators are 100% full of anti-freeze, we never have the problem of frozen radiators.

Hi Paul Thanks, no you're right, you shouldn't have a problem if the correct amount is the system. Glad you're enjoying the blog.....
