I finally remembered to call the gas man today. He's going to pop round tomorrow to disconnect the old gas cooker and cap off the pipe, ready for it to be taken away
The new cooker arrives on Monday but the only time I have is "between 9AM and 7PM" so I'll have to wait until next week to get him back to attach that.
And I need to arrange for the junk collectors to come and remove the old fridge freezer and bed settee along with the cooker, though after last week's cabinet disassembly there's enough free space for the cooker to hang around until they can make it here.Comment

Definitely time for a coffee first, though
