I feel your pain, poor programming left my heating on 24/7 for a week or
so until I noticed it and corrected the idiotic programming I did but,
as they say, you live and learn.

My old dear got a table done by some wood restoration mob up here and I
have to say those guys know their stuff, try Yellow Pages, your house
insurance should cover it.
