Glad I was of some use then!
Mrs A phoned her mum today to see how she and her step-dad (both well into their 70s) were getting on. Okay today but yesterday wasn't so good. Living in deepest Wales, their heating is from propane bottles and, it transpires, condensation had frozen in the pipework. They were off for a day and a half and the house went down to 10C. Apparently, they sat up all night throwing paper logs on the fire!
