I've had the Rayburn lit for the last couple of days. It's only bloody August for God's sake!

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
Lady Poppy says (and I agree with her) "we've had three months of hideously hot weather and now it's gotten back to normal you're all complaining?" Come on you lot - if it's mid-teens to low twenties out there it's much easier to cope with and nicer to ride in. Happy days. Mav - you need to turn your thermostat down.

Hot weather made a lot of people grumpy through lack of sleep and the rivers and reservoirs were going down fast, and now we are back to normal proper UK weather. I looks on weather maps as though Scotland continued to get a good soaking while we were having high temps and no rain.

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
I got rather wet out geocaching yesterday and I rather enjoyed it. Walking through a dripping wet woodland is rather nice if it's as mild as we're having it right now.

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
i agree with that. its a bombardment of the senses. especially if your collecting firewood for a camp fire that night so you can have proper bbq food and get pizzed under the stars.. gawd i miss it sooooo much. just wish i was still able.

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
I took the sender off the boiler (that the thermostat connects to) when we were getting our kitchen done earlier in the summer and now I have lost it so I cant turn the heating on if I tried........ Luckily we have a log burner..........Ordered a hive hub and thermostat so we will have heating next week sometime when the postie delivers it

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
If you labelled the connections you can just bridge the feed to the switch wire going to the boiler.

Re: The All new Reeder Megathread
Roast lamb first time in years, and I made Yorkshire puddings even though it was lamb.
First time I'd cooked them in our new oven, very good yorkies
