Isle Trotting
This be a holding post…be ye warned Waterford I popped across the Irish Sea to do some work in Waterford last weekend. The flight was delayed and we ended up being the airport stragglers, left stranded almost an hour after the rest of the occupants had vacated. It isn’t the most comfortable place to be…

Madeira (Escaping the Rain)
Trying to cope with the British weather? Why bother. Just leave already. That was our approach over half term. Why stick it out when you can leave for sunnier climes. I believe the upper classes refer to it as “over-wintering”, but five days away hardly a season makes. Geography lesson. You may think that Madeira…

Once More with Gusto (and Games)
This is the usual pivot-post. Ease you in with some games, teach you how to bake, and finish up with some light food criticism. Bon appétit It (still) Takes Two? Yes, we are still playing It Takes Two. It also takes enough time that we’ve got plenty more to play. I have been slightly side-tracked…

Cupboards and Conservatories (And a Bit of Broadband)

Airing Cupboard/Hot Press* *Neither is particularly a accurate name… I am in the process of reassembling the airing cupboard/hot press (take your pick) and tried to do so in the most straightforward way – cutting bits of plasterboard…

Heat Pump, Take Three (Part Two)
And it’s in. Time for the ever after… We’ve had our Daikin Altherma air source heat pump in for about a week now, and so far it seems to be functional. We haven’t had much of a chance to test it given that we are in the middle of summer and the room temperature barely…

Heat Pump, Take Three
Radiators filled. System pressurised. And action! It was almost destined not to happen, but after months of pain, disruption, and switching companies, the air source heat pump (ASHP for those in the know, or if you want to be pretentious) installation is finally happening. Octopus Energy is the force behind it, and they have been…
