Boiler bother | Immigration and wars | Bradford blow | Working people | ME/CFS | Erotic Saturday

A few years ago, I got fed up trying to reprogramme my confusing boiler controls twice a year when the clocks change (What is the most efficient way to use central heating? Your energy questions answered, 26 October). So I reset the time on it by just half an hour. Now it comes on a bit late at the start of autumn, when it’s not that cold anyway, and a bit early in the depths of winter, when it’s really cold. Result.
