This morning I rescued a spider from the bath. For an arachnophobe, this was a MAJOR accomplishment! 😊

Decided to turn on the central heating as it was quite, er, chilly.
Except it didn't go on. 😭
But amazingly, for this supercrap council, an engineer came out in 2 hours and discovered our water pressure was nearly zero. What a surprise.
