Thanks for your concerns. athumb.. Be assured I'm fine.

Your problem may be that the PB has slightly raised 'feet' which could be preventing direct contact between the mat and the base of the PB. Plus there no contact at all in the dome so you are relying solely on any convection. Try putting a sealed bag of damp sand under the PB in the dome void so...

Bye bye. Your few contributions have been duly noted and appear to have covered a number of emotions from members including praise, derision, incredulity, and a thinly veiled warning. Hope you manage to calm down a little, lose some of your anger, and enjoy life a little more. athumb..

Like it or not the current government were voted in...
