Hello, Im back. That poem is brill - thanks.
I've spent a few days with a good friend with good central heating. The temperature has risen considerably and I'm not cold anymore. I've taken lots of your advice, and I think the warmth of your concern has helped most of all.

I have a new boiler in the pipeline, so hopefully some time in march I'll be sorted.

Its valentines day tomorrow, I send my love to you all, thanks,

pat

PS no one has ever writ me a poem before............big thanks!
