Well, we have oil, and after a lot of swearing at the boiler, we have heat as well. Which means he will have to put away the milk and butter from the kitchen work surfaces where they appear to have taken up residence in recent days.
So on his awakening this morning he comes down the stairs wearing very little and singing and telling no one in particular how warm it all is indoors today. Frankly, I preferred it when it was cold and he had several shirts, jumpers and fleeces on. Apart from when he went looking for his 'special fleece'...... Well I needed something a little extra in the boot room coz it was reeeeeely really cold at night!
Some mornings Dog Lady Opposite comes over, if she is taking her pack out for a long walk, and takes me with them. I like that coz I get a Bonio when we get back and a rub down with a warm towel. Have I mentioned that I like Bonio's? Anyway, whilst he is flouncing around the dining room telling me how warm it is indoors and extolling the virtues of the very efficient new boiler (the same one he was swearing at yesterday!), Dog Lady Opposite bursts through the front door to get my lead and take me with her! There then followed a very bizarre scene. The Owner stood in the middle of the dining room with a cushion, the only thing he could grab at such short notice, covering his embarrassment. Dog Lady Opposite looking him only in the eyes. Both carrying on a conversation about gravel extraction (the topic of much village conversation lately), as though this was perfectly normal behaviour! I suspect the heating may be turned down a little tonight somehow!
