Right … I’m assuming you’ve been following the issues I’ve been having with my boiler?
Basically?
The heating works. But the hot water it generates is … lukewarm … at best.
The original engineer was out like week?
Offered a work around …
But no actual repair, as he felt it was to old to be fixed.
So … I managed to arrange a visit from a more senior engineer: for yesterday afternoon.
He didn’t turn up.
Basically? He’d had a few jobs in my street, in the morning, and gave me a phone call to see if he could look in early.
And told me he’d be back, once he found out that I was in Sainbury’s.
Then got the office to phone me, to re-book the visit for today, as his jobs in Chelmsford over-ran.
He’s turning up, this afternoon.
Which is good.
It means I can get something done about the boiler.
And he won’t trip over the electrician who’s due to fix my bathroom light …
About the only downside?
I’ll be stuck indoors all day …

While we’re at it … ?
Have you heard of Tor? The web browser that gives you one hell of a lot of privacy online, by routing you through an encrypted network of computers?
But some companies like to have a onion address — one only accessible through Tor — as it means users in repressive countries can access them.
It turns out one of those companies? Is the BBC.
They’ve just released an onion address for their news site.
This one, in fact.
Don’t open in a normal browser. You won’t get far …
