I visited Hazel where the Dementia Concern psychologist said her dementia has not changed in the last six months. Heating engineer serviced the boiler and tried to sort out why the heating comes on at strange times.

Tue 12th

ELT with Ian Hamilton on Mk 2:1 ff.

Wed 13th

Our central heating is gas radiators upstairs and underfloor downstairs. It has been coming on and off at strange times. We had an engineer in having failed to find the installers who worked for the previous owner. He serviced the boiler and said all was fine with the system except probably the pairing of the four wireless room thermostats to the system. So today I spent forty minutes on the phone with the system manufacturers, but it seems our bedroom is still not heating. Ian Hamilton  spoke at our mid-week meeting. Ian gave a masterful talk on lessons from the life of John Calvin.
