Fire and water

Last night after milking our electrician came and installed two heaters in the parlour. They will hopefully stop the pipelines freezing and I can reclaim the portable heaters from the house that had made their way down the yard. Every year when we have winter visitors we try to put a heater in every bedroom and at strategic points round the house (the rest of the year the two of us cope in a northern hardy way), and every year we seem to have to buy a least one new heater. Where do they go in summer?

And finally, for those of you itching to know if our new self-sufficient water supply is fit to drink - the answer is "yes" - we have had the results from the samples we sent in last month.

That's better than many piped home supplies! Piped water picks up contaminants as it travels to the home - which is "normal". Yours clearly has almost no measurable contaminants.

Apart from that comment (really an excuse to say what we really want to say) - Happy Retirement and Merry Christmas to all at Strickley (both sides of the yard!).
