What a day..

Well, today has been quite interesting to say the least. I had a beautiful lie in with the boy after staying up late to finish yet another practical... when will I learn? Then I had a shower at Megans before getting ready for a day Christmas shopping with Cam :) 

Our heating has been broken for 5 days now, which means no heating, no showers and no hot tap water. It is actually ridiculous how long they have made us wait, sure they keep coming to "fix" it but go away without actually solving anything! I've been wearing around a billion layers to try and stay warm, my sheet s are freezing to touch and yeah, I have to shower in Megs. They finally came today and told the flat that our boiler is broken. Kaput. Can't be fixed. How it took 5 days to come to this conclusion I do not know. Anyway, it has also been leaking carbon monoxide apparently, which in case you didn't know is toxic. As in, can kill you toxic. Great! So we are getting a new boiler in a week (!) and have been provided with portable heaters for our rooms. Lets just say they aren't very good. We've also been given a key for a house 3 doors down with a spare ensuite that we can shower in, but luckily the next door flat is being very generous and letting us just pop over when we want to :)

I got lots of shopping done today, I seem to be buying for so many people this year! Matthew's stocking is all finished, nothing majorly exciting in there but there are some rather funny things. I also sorted his mumma and sister's presents, and bought some earrings for my own ma. Still have to buy for dad though, any ideas?
