The boiler that serves the kitchen, schoolroom and downstairs bathroom is mended. Huzzah! Hot water! Heating!
Within two hours, the boiler that serves all the upstairs rooms, bathrooms and bedrooms, breaks down. Boo! Hiss! No hot water. No heating.
There is only one answer to this terrible synchronicity which foretells yet more household expenditure, mayhem and disaster. Go into survival mode, paint our faces green, and take to the woods.

That's a good alternative way to deal with that problem. Will you be sleeping in tents made of animal skins and be hunkering by a campfire?
Now, you do remember to tell the plumber that you are pregnant and that all of your children are frail asthmatics, right? And then, when he arrives, you handcuff him to the radiator and make him stay until summer/he has fully fledged stockholm syndrome. whichever comes sooner.
dearest, you did not need this right now. hopefully one day your advent calendar will arrive and you can barter it for some logs.
Oh Bugger! That's rotten, hope it's fixed properly now, this is not the time of year to be without heating and hot water. Does the green paint help at all?
Feral Grits, Oh my!
Merry Christmas to you all!
