Ok so. The plumber and his mate showed up at ten to eight(!), but they were done by about half eleven. Done as in, everything was completed, and yay.
I would've been happy enough with that.
They said the electrician had to come to fit the thermostat and clock for the new boiler, but that wouldn't be till tomorrow. I'd already been told this, so I knew anyway.
The electrician turned up about an hour later, and was gone by quarter to two.
All in all, what they said would take two days has taken one. Less than one, even.
Granted, I'm still dog tired, even after a two hour nap this afternoon (I was running on hindbrain and five and a half hours' sleep, so this is an improvement), but DONE. Yes, it was a noisy nightmare, and the house got really cold, but it is DONE. The heating is improved, and now doesn't squeal like a metallic pig stuck in an equally metallic fence.
THANK THE GODS.
(I'm still totally crashing tomorrow and over the weekend, though).
