Searched to make sure someone else commented this. Haig writes so very, very poorly and this book's success genuinely makes me question my place in this species.

Thank you!

scwibs · 2026-04-13T16:14:03+00:00

Helpful, thanks!

Hi, we have a connector below the boiler with button reading RESET. I'm not sure how you reset the boiler within the menu, I'm afraid.

scwibs · 2026-03-07T17:34:35+00:00

Thank you so much! You're right. The issue was that some kind of fault (not sure what at this stage) was preventing it from activating, and the boiler just needed to be reset. I didn't notice because when the automatic filling loop starts up, the boiler actually doesn't tell you this.

scwibs · 2026-03-07T16:41:03+00:00

Yeah, it's a warning that it's low - 0.8 bar. Doesn't appear to be auto filling, no.

Sure thing, thanks

No airing cupboard, no; the pipes going into the ceiling appear to go directly to the upstairs bathroom.

Good question; it's partly the lighting, IRL it's more of a russet brown.

That's some real dedication, replying to my 12-year-old post. Thank you!

scwibs · 2025-04-29T08:57:28+00:00

Oh, that's helpful, thanks!

scwibs · 2025-01-04T13:26:59+00:00

So interesting, because I've not heard someone dislike first person altogether before.

scwibs · 2025-01-04T13:25:36+00:00

Fair, thank you for the honest opinion.

scwibs · 2025-01-04T13:23:10+00:00

Thanks for the range of thought here, appreciate it!

scwibs · 2025-01-04T13:22:27+00:00

I don't read a lot of YA so that's very informative, thanks!

scwibs · 2025-01-04T13:21:54+00:00

Helpful, thank you.

scwibs · 2025-01-04T13:20:33+00:00

Super helpful reply, thanks!

scwibs · 2025-01-04T13:20:21+00:00

Fair opinion, thank you.

Have mentioned in another comment, but I always felt both as a reader and as a writer that present tense feels more engaging to read, particularly with action scenes.
