Cold

The gas where I live has been turned off because of a fractured gas mains pipe, see the BBC article here. So it is very cold in my house.

I had just got in and was eating soup when I heard a knock on the front door, no uses that side of the house. I opened the door and the bloke said is your gas turned off. Err No I said, well can I turn it. I asked why, then he told me about the gas being off and having to turn everyone's gas supply off before they could fix it.

Once I had shifted the TV, he turned it off. Then just as he left I heard them mention it on the news.

I think I will go to bed now, because my feet are like ice. If I had been out and not seen the TV I wouldn't know anything about it. There had been nothing through the door. Supposedly there are heaters and hot plates available not that I need a hot plate.

Anyway I'm off to bed where hopefully I will warm up (just as well its a bit warmer than it was last week).
