Set to the tune of "It'll Be Lonely This Christmas" by Elvis:
It'll be freezing this Christmas
Without any gas
It'll be freezing this Christmas
I may freeze my ass
It'll be cold, so cold, with no heating on
This Christmas
It'll be freezing this Christmas
With no one to hold
It'll be freezing this Christmas
My boiler's too old
I will be frozzed, so frozzed, how will I keep warm?
This Christmas
Wont be long now - I freeze in the winter ....
The summer is unbearable too, endure burning pins and needles throughout ..... Ah well, such is life ....
My boiler runs on a thermostat so I never bother to turn it off. It has just started to 'fire up' in the mornings for about 5 mins and not yet in the evenings. Must get it serviced some time.
I'm hoping that the oil in the tank will last another couple of months and I'll get a top-up before Xmas.
I'm just about to open a window to cool down, bit warm here today. Have never turned heating on before end of October before and try to hold out into November if we can.
My downstairs neighbour puts hers on mid August and we take advantage of that !
