Aprosexic - Old age should burn and rave at close of day

All fired up

Today's lyric:

"Sitting in a carriage of a Bakerloo
Erotica my pocket, got a packet for you
Advert on the escalator on my way home
I don't need no skin flicks, I wanna be alone."

The Clash: "Protex Blue"
From the album: "The Clash"

but not quite rarin' to go.

In the saga of the central heating boiler, last night we achieved flame and steam, but instant cut-off as soon as the thermostat's setting was reached.

By the time we decided to call it a day (again) the manufacturer's helpdesk was long since shut, so a cork was pulled and we belatedly tried to get some relax time.

Tomorrow it will be four weeks without heating. We can't believe how lucky we've been with the continuing mild weather, but it's beginning to wear us down...
