We left the pool cover off last night as it was 32° anyway the bloody house martins and wag tails have been bathing and drinking. But they are getting ready to go as no nests seem to be chirping anymore.

Dutch mate of ours who used to have a pool with solar heating said it's a good idea to have a stat that switches it off at 32 as if not you risk not only algae but aalso legionella.
Dunno if he's right! Our's never gets that high but our other friends' does.
Best tellum!

You were nearly on the right track until you carried on towards England after Crossgates. Incidentally, the café at Crossgates is very, very good and very popular with many throughout the year. We are south of here, down south beyond Builth Wells.

No, it is the big fuel station with huge parking area, just about 100 yards before the big roundabout.

1PM and the flooring is all done in the main room, only the downstairs bog to do (after removing the bog). Left Thomas doing the last 4 bits in the lounge (under the stairs).
All looks fabulous.
Came home to see the new F/F in.

I may have to spend an unusually long time looking at a non-existant problem in the air-conditioned server room.

those pesky intermittent issues can be hard to track down, sometimes even fix themselves
