Damn–we forgot

There was a notice posted on the information board both in Spanish and English which told us that the gas supply would be cut today so the system could be tested. This has happened before and the idea is that you close the gas tap outside your house to enable pressure testing to take place.

Unfortunately neither of us remembered. It was only when Pam tried to run the hot water and found that it was still cold after several minutes that we realised what the problem was!

No pasa nada. I’ve turned the supply off now and we are using the air conditioning units to heat the house.

On the notice, it says they will inform us when the testing is complete and the supply has been resumed. Well that did not happen last time! I guess sometime later today I will just have to turn the tap back on and see what happens. As I recall, last time I had to turn the tap on and off a couple of times to get the gas flowing back through the pipe to the boiler.
