Bleeding Hell

It's cold.

Even I will admit that it's cold. Apparently yesterday was the coldest day in March for 27 years. I have not been here for 27 years, but , truly, it was the coldest day in 4 years.

Strangely, last week Tuesday was the hottest day in March ....these Poms are a bit mad about the weather.
But, yes , indeed it was cold yesterday. Today was not great either.
We have had the heating on almost all day.

So, odd thing...radiators.

We have heard about Bleeding Radiators.

Honestly, that doesn't sound like a normal phrase, now does it?

We have radiators. We know they have to be bled. We don't know how to do it, why we should do it, and so far, we have ignored the whole issue.
Dr Lauren mentioned in passing, on her weekend visit, that it sounded as though our radiators needed to be bled.
We knew this was not a medical opinion.
We smiled and nodded and pretended we would look into it.
And indeed, I did. We have a radiator bleeding key. Well, we did. It has disappeared.  I don't really know what it looks like to be able to locate it.  I thought it was in the cutlery drawer, it isn't.

The key I thought was the Radiator Bleeding Key is actually the Gas Inspection Key.

Well , really, for fuck' s sake!
