Don't do it hubs

Sunday 10th February 2008 - Hubs is determind to get the better of this heating problem, so even though the wheather is beautiful, we decided that he should spend the morning with his head in the oven, trying to find the problem with this blooming diesel heating. We appear to have a number of possible issues all going at the same time, such as pump overheating, points sticking and a poor burn. It all seems to work fine for a couple of hours and just when you think you have solved the problem - it goes wrong.
Poor hubs could not sort it - so while I was slaving over the automatic washing machine, hubs decided to fish instead and the three tiddlers that were caught over the course of the afternoon seemed to help a little. After a great deal of thought (over a few pints) we have now come to terms with the fact that we will need to ask for help. So we're handing it over to someone who knows and he also likes the odd pint in the Cutter. After saying that we got it going in the evening and just as we put the pizza in the oven the rotten thing went out - is it something we said!!!!
No cooking today - shame!

Start of a beautiful day

Saturday 9th February 2008. This is what we have been waiting for. The weather today was absolutely beautiful, so we took a trip up to Littleport and had lunch at the Black Horse. We took the fishing gear, but met some really nice chaps and ended up chatting until about 4pm (therefore no fishing was done). As the heating was playing up, we needed to get back and plug in again because it was going to be a cold night (didn't want to be without warmth, a coward I know). It was so lovely to spend the day with just jumpers rather that layers of clothing including waterproofs. We now know that this was the best move we have ever made, we are going to enjoy this summer!!!
Lets get on the water
