New Ice Age inside and outside

Tuesday saw a continuation of the extremely cold weather and not to be outdone a new day time low temperature of minus 3.5 was recorded. Our average daily temperature for the month is now just below 0°C. It was another day with a reasonably amount of sunshine and no snowfall. The ice sheet on the pond continues to grow leaving only a small area ice free now.

It also turned out to pretty cold inside as our new central heating boiler stopped working just after lunch time. It’s a couple of days before a man can come and hopefully repair the fault. Our old storage heaters gave us 25 years of excellent service with no breakdowns or call outs throughout their lifetime. Our new gas central heating system has managed just 10 days! It’s probably too cold for it or the wrong sort of cold.
