Monday 25th October - Blue Skies and Boilers

Stuck !! - Apart from a lurgy I've had for a couple of days which is draining rather than debilitating - there are beautiful blue skies outside and I've been grounded by the boiler, which has been on the blink meaning intermittent hot water and heating. The midday appointment from the boiler man turned into a 2.30pm arrival. Just over an hour later all seemed to be well. Boiler up and running, man left,  so I went to get some provisions and birdfood. Returned about 5pm - No Power in the house, something had tripped - reset everything  - 10 mins later same thing - After repeating this 3 more times I worked out it was the boiler causing the problem - Man can't come back until Wednesday - which means no hot water or heating  !!!! - Have to rearrange work stuff so I can work at home Wednesday to accommodate boiler man again !!! Garden birds only today so tried a few pics, other than a flyover Skylark, had a Buzzard, Kestrel and Sparrowhawk in quick succession. Great Spotted Woodpecker, Nuthatch, Robin, Wren, Dunnock, Great Tits, Blue Tits, Coal Tits, Marsh Tit, Long-tailed Tits, Greenfinch, Goldfinch, Chaffinch, Blackbird, House Sparrow,  Pheasant, Magpie.
