That's very very sad.
The guy was being treated for suspected bronchitis and breathing difficulties before he died. Unfortunately we've all heard stories of people getting chest pains/issues misdiagnosed and then having a heart attack. I'm no Dr twitter by any means but it looks like a very simple but sad explanation.

Is eamonhonda still active? Chances of a Delta flight to JFK at 11.25am Monday morning departing Dublin? Assume they'll have their act together with de-icing stuff by then?

Great fun trying to get the air to water heating working so far in this weather. I turned on the stats upstairs and downstairs (1 stat upstairs, 2 stats downstairs for some reason) and no heating was happening at all. No matter what I set the stats to the temperature would climb to that number and the boiler would stop being pulled, but nothing was being heated at all, apart from the boiler - and always have hot water too. So firstly, what are the sensors measuring if they think the rooms are hot everywhere in the house when it is absolutely freezing everywhere? Three thermostats saying the temp is rising when nothing is changing?! Then I turn the stats to a lower temp, they stop pulling the boiler, and the stats say the temp is lowering, all the while no temp has changed anywhere.
After 5 days of no heating noticed that the underfloor suddenly was heating. Boiler company came out and were quite confused as it seemed the underfloor controls downstairs were pulling the upstairs heaters and upstairs was pulling downstairs they thought this as the upstairs stat turned on the underfloor heating system in the utility room downstairs - so their theory was that downstairs heated first and turned off upstairs, so they swapped some electrics at the boiler as a hack to make them pull the opposite way.
This has led to only upstairs heating from the downstairs stats with the underfloor system turning on to heat upstairs somehow in the utility and downstairs not heating at all, so they shouldn't have swapped them. So while it is warm upstairs in the bedrooms downstairs is icy now instead. Still the mysterious heating sensors are climbing and lowering without much change of temp in these rooms and the boiler seems to be heating these rooms most of the time, this week electricity is over €100 from heating alone, which is crazy.
I finally also figured out that if I try to turn on upstairs and downstairs at once, they are both pulling with a hot boiler but there is no heating happening at all at the rads or the underfloor, so that is likely why for the first 5 days there was no heating at all, then the upstairs one turned off (it goes to "off" on the stat sometimes all by itself) and then downstairs must have started heating. As to why upstairs turns on the underfloor system downstairs I have no idea.
Good times!

BBV! I am once again asking for your support.
I am shilling. Massively. 5Star, Lloyd or KevIRL(if you are still alive and kicking) delete this post if you want.
We just launched our Swingtweaks giftcards. https://www.swingtweaks.com/giftcards/
If you know a golfer in your life that needs some help, or you want to be an incredibly thoughtful gift giver this Christmas give them some Swingtweaks.
Swingtweaks lets those golfers record some vids of their swing and upload them to our app, we then have a bunch of PGA Professionals analyze the video, narrate a lesson to the golfers and show them exactly where issues are arising. They also include some general advice and some drills to take to the practice range.
We have legitimately had rave reviews from the golfers that have used it, and the value is incredible at
22 euro for 1
52 euro for 3
90 euro for 5.
You can write a personalized gift email to the golfer and we'll deliver on the date you specify with a code they can use in the app to redeem.
I'd massively appreciate any and all support. We've been trucking along and this a good time to get the word out and to delight any golfers you know.
If you are a golfer you can buy for yourself on https://swingtweaks.com/shop.
And if the golfer, or you, are not happy with the first tweak you get, we'll refund you. Bingo, bango, bongo.
Thank you!

At a guess I'd say the problem last night was that there was no reliable count of just how many yellows there'd been already, making setting a market next to impossible.

Everywhere else is frozen (although there isn't much 'everywhere else' as its a small house). Still costing 40 kwh a day.

Buzzing after that. Didn't think it was going to happen after getting AA cracked on the 2nd hand in the final table in a 1.6m monster pot leaving me crippled with 2.5bb under the gun.
But as they say, chip and a chair
