Rare P&O SUE Posted October 2, 2020 #6576 Share Posted October 2, 2020 (edited) 34 minutes ago, Dermotsgirl said: The start of October is often good weather. One of my friends was due to be married on 3rd October, but, for various reasons they had to switch to a week later. She always says that the day she would have had her anniversary is normally sunny, but her actual anniversary is nearly always dull. However, very gloomy here today. We have someone coming round to look at a small leak in our water cylinder in the airing cupboard. It’s covered by our service plan, , but still hoping it’s a minor job Johns birthday was often good weather but the last couple of years it hasn’t been so good! Hope it is a minor job. Seems to be that time of year, we’ve got a boiler service when we get back from our break. Edited October 2, 2020 by P&O SUE 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a leaky regulator valve which should have been replaced years ago, a plasticky thing inside eventually cracks and leaks. No charge but I made a donation to his beer fund 😃 That's good news it was easily fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even worse my Facebook ‘memories’ shows this day 4 years ago we were leaving Southampton in blue skies and short sleeves! It was only a short cruise to Amsterdam and Le Harve but it was fabulous! We were supposed to be flying to Sanford Orlando from Newcastle on Sunday for a weeks hotel holiday but unfortunately TUI cancelled the flight a couple of months ago.☹️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is just for balance as I step into/out of the bath. the main task for next week is to get some double glazing quotes 😨 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
