Yesterday the gas man came to fix our boiler and do a service. He came at around 2:30pm, just as I was going into my bedroom to do some drawing. I came out at 3:30pm to see if I could start my dinner, but the gas man was still here. My Mum said she thought he was nearly finished.
So I sat down on the sofa to wait. I still had my cardy and heater on. The gas man didn't actually finish till about 5:00pm -ish. I usually have my dinner at 5:00pm! I started my dinner, and I think it was ready about 6:00pm. It was Risi i Bisi which involves me stirring it every 10 minutes until the liquid has reduced. (That's if you're wondering why it took me so long!
)
Anyway, the boiler is fixed now! The water in the hot tap is running hot and I don't have to boil a kettle any more to do the washing up!
The radiators are working and warming the house nicely.
Yesterday was rainy and my weather app said it would be rainy again today, so I said I wouldn't be going to the little Tesco today. Then when I got up it looked fine! But I got up later than I usually do on a Tuesday when I'm going to the little Tesco, so I decided I would still not go. Because of being later, I might miss Homes Under the Hammer!
Yesterday my Mum said if it was rainy today we might get everything from the big Tesco tomorrow, but now the weather's not so bad my Mum might go earlier this afternoon instead. But we'll have to wait and see.
What is the weather like where you are?
What are you lot getting up to today?
I hope you are all well.
Have a nice day.

@sharenelton Lovely sunny day here but chilly out of the sun. We’re just packing etc in preparation for going away tomorrow. Took ages to find the passports - panic almost set in but I found them under a pile of clothes. Now I’ll need to empty the fridge of stuff that won’t last 3 weeks.

@sharonelton Athens. 32 degrees on Sunday and I don’t really do heat very well.

I'm glad your boiler is fixed. The temperatures have cooled down a bit; and it will rain on and off this week. We could use the rain. Nothing going on until tomorrow. My husband's 2nd cousin will be coming to help me out around the house. Have a good day.

Thank you very much. I'm glad too.
It was supposed to be rainy all week this week but it looks OK today. I guess it comes and goes.
I hope you enjoy whatever you do.
I hope you are well.
Have a nice day.

Thank you very much. Yes, I'm glad too. I was perishing cold and it wasn't pleasant!
