She occasionally calls for her missing furry hot water bottles, but is very content to be with us in the sitting room after Brian has gone.

We have discovered an inspection hatch into the pipework we didn't know we had, but now have rather more holes than we would have wanted, though Brian the Heating Engineer and Steve-his-boss are doing their best to make it as painless as they can.

Unfortunately, this process involves removing the old central heating boiler from its position in the centre of the house and putting in a new condensing boiler flued to an outside wall in the ex-garage, with all the pipework that entails, and removing the old hotwater tank and the shower pump (which is hidden behind panelling in the bathroom) so there is much cutting through plasterboard...

Py has evening laps in a warm room. She has been fed from the table for the first time since the D-O-G arrived. Happy kitty.
