Hi hun I quickly read your post well to be honest half of it then my internet went down grrr. Anyway I was read ing your heating fiasco & guess what I think you jinxed me...we all got up at 6.30 this morn as usual & it was bloody freezing...when I went for my wash not hot water...the heating hadnt come on at 5 like it should the combi-boiler had lost some of its pressure lol...luckily hubby knows what he's doing so he managed to regain the pressure so it was soon toasty warm again lol. Hope you get sorted very soon hun. Your card is gorgeous love the colours fab take on the sketch, its a lovely one to work with isnt it hun. Take care shug.

Lotsa hugs Vicky xxx
