Re: Will no-one rid me of this turbulent plumber?
Argh!Latest update.
I seem to be living in a parallel universe. I have been captured by plumbing aliens and have been taken to planet plumber. Either that or I am the living embodiment of a plumber’s online adventure game.
The latest is that there is a crack in the hot water tank between the heating coil and the tank containing domestic hot water. Thus the tank needs to be changed. No useable hot water until this is done next week.
This means showers instead of baths. (When will I get to think?). Boiling washing up water. No use of the washing machine. Fortunately I still have the dishwasher, which comes off the cold water supply and also the heating, so the house is not cold.
However it appears that most of next week will be spent waiting for plumbers as well.

Alternatively, you could give up hot water for Lent. -

Well, I don’t find it particularly difficult to imagine St Anthony making his way to the desert wadi looking for clear water, finding only muddy guck and crying: “How I am supposed to be a mystic visionary with all this going on?”

PhD Topic
If anyone is looking for a PhD topic, I suggest that they consider the following one: The Use of Public Prayer in the University of Stirling. It seems that once again the tide is flowing against public prayer at graduations. It should not be assumed that all chaplains are in favour of graduation prayers. Some…

Some time, I don’t know when, I am going to pay attention and listen when someone tries to explain the rules and scoring of tennis to me. But not this year, it seems.
