Right … it’s officially official !
I’ve had to re-inflate the boiler!
Or, at least, twiddle the valves that raise the pressure in whatever it is that needs pressure, raising, to get the thing working.
I’m thankfully that I knew the trick.
It would be a nippy wait, in the cold, for a repair man.
And a long wait, heating enough water to have a bath!

As an extra point … ?
After complicated backing and forthing, between Amazon and I … ?
I now have a toaster*!
An Amazon Basics one, if you’re interested: which came with a warming rack, for if I ever wanted to toast croissants.
Which isn’t something I’m planning on.
The one question I have left … ?
Will the thing work … ?

Did I mention I’m on Quora?
The site that let’s you answer questions: and occasionally ask one, yourself?
I had this question float across my time line, a few days ago: asking if people would buy a Mac, if they were frustrated by — or were put off buying — Windows 11.
My answer?
Was that I felt that, yes: that’s one option.
What were you expecting, given I’m a Mac fan?
But I also added that I felt many would look at Chromebooks, or a model of tablet, before making a decision.
I’ve also added something else: that I think the big factor will be not how powerful a machine is, nor the operating system or whether MS Word works on the thing …
But quite simply one thing: budget.
Money’s always the biggest factor …
