Sorry I've been so quiet. Family (my brother and his wife and daughter) visited for a few days, so the run up was getting the house ready and now we're sort of in decompression mode and having to tend to everything that didn't happen while they were here. Like, the guys who we had contacted to drain and refill our heating system have called us back twice, as has the furnace guy, but we didn't even bother to listen to any messages while the Fam were here.
