Last time I tried I had to wait a week, by which time I was better and cancelled the appointment that I had made.<br /><br />We have just had our annual gas boiler overhaul and check, and they also recommended installing a CO detector/alarm. I intend to buy one the next time I visit B&Q ... just in case.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />BobRobert (Bob) Corderyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109130990434792266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6933470253715910366.post-91164181405089772382015-06-21T13:08:28.121+01:002015-06-21T13:08:28.121+01:00Arthur1815, (Arthur),

The recommended treatment involves taking plenty of rest, keeping hydrated ... and including lots of vitamin C in our diet. So your advice about eating greens and taking lime juice is not that wide of the mark!<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />BobRobert (Bob) Corderyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109130990434792266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6933470253715910366.post-84885523549555285692015-06-20T14:37:31.625+01:002015-06-20T14:37:31.625+01:00Obviously with you and your good lady being at sea...Obviously with you and your good lady being at sea so much you have developed 'scurvy'.
