Heres hoping you get it fixed and soon. I couldn't imagine having no heating at this time of the year, (do you think the boiler gremlin does this on purpose and waits until winter???) lol. Your electric bill will be through the roof using a heater all the time.....

Yes Chris, I think my electricity bill is going to be sky high, we're being very thrifty but have to have it on in the evenings as it gets so cold, I let my daughter have one on in her bedroom, she is 14 and does her homework etc., in there. Son who is 20 doesn't have one neither do we in the bedroom. We put the electric fire on in the room at 6pm and it's normally off my 10. The house actually feels cold now, I think even with the heating it's going to be a few weeks before it's warm again as it's an old property too.
IVA final payment left the bank on the 26th January 2013...looking forward to a debt free future.

The dog is made redundant...I have heating and almost have hot water! He's got to come back Monday as the hot water isn't maintaining it's temperature, but I can live with that for a little while as least it's periodically hot! He's got one more thing to try and if it doesn't work, it's more expense for the heat exchanger I'm afraid, but to be honest, right now I'm so happy to be warm, I'm not bothered! Thank you all for putting up with my moaning! x

I'm so glad that you've got heating Isthereanend and I hope he manages to sort out the hot water soon.

BTW, your dog is gorgeous!

Thanks Skippy, Admin kindly did that for me! They did say I could have a pic of myself in the bath (suitably censored) but don't somehow think I would want to put of any of you good people through seeing that!

I remember years of existing on income support and waking up at ten to six each morning in the middle of winter praying that the rickety old boiler would fire up again so that I had some hot water and some heating for my children ...

Can we all come round for a bath just to 'test the water' for you [:D]
