That's bad. Ours was off for most of the day Saturday and I was dreading it being off during the night because I have to sleep with a CPAP machine.

Well I've managed to source a heater for tonight and we have lights, so hopefully better than the past 3 nights. Who knows, perhaps SPENERGY will keep this promise and we won't need it.

Sounds a bit grim Mike. Hope they get it sorted for you soon.

Came back on about 4.30 this afternoon. Just after I had managed to get hold of a portable gas heater. These have been like hens teeth for obvious reasons. So the house is slowly warming up again

Just found a hole in my extension roof caused by a falling ridge tile. Now fixed. Thank you to my neighbour who spotted it and warned me.

Found the little hedgehog we've been nurturing prone on the lawn this morning. He's too small to hibernate and our efforts to feed him up haven't really worked. He was still just alive but likely hypothermic, so Mel took him to the vet. They will warm him up and see if he can be revived. He'll go to the hedgehog rescue if he does.
Now have a vacant hedgehog house ![]()

One of the reasons we were trying so hard to get it up to a good weight to survive the winter. There's a fair few across the road in a garden that's running a bit wild, but unfortunately two were run over recently. If ours goes, that's probably half the hedgies in the village gone. Sad.

I've not seen a hedgehog around here for a very long time, but then we have badgers and foxes nearby who probably predate on them, so not too surprised.
My GotD is BlackCircles. Need front boots for the car (very little grip now it's properly cold) and they had the all season Michelins I wanted so ordered for a Saturday fitment at a local place. Email late last night in broken English saying would I like Pirelli instead? No I do not. Why did you take my order if you don't have stock of the tyre I wanted? It's all you do - match your tyre inventory with punter and fitter so you should be well on top of what stock you have. Cancelled order and found the same tyres in stock with a local independent who are slightly cheaper so all's well really.
