Peter, thanks very much, I certainly will look into this. Even if it
isn't suitable for my system, the information is well worth logging for
anyone who might benefit.

THis is for Jackie's benefit. It is not a talking device but it may
well fit the bill.
Danfoss 4033 24-Hour Mechanical Programmer TIMED/OFF/ON (Constant) for
heating and same for domestic hot water.
Off and On override.
this switch is available from danfoss randall ltd of bedford.
they do a braille version which is very accessible. it has 2 switches,
one switch for hot water, the other for the heating system. they are
clearly brailled h/w each switch has 3 positions, off, on and timed.
there is a rotary dial with dots around it, a little like a braille
watch.
there
is a reference dot so you can use the rotary dial to enable you to set
the 24 hour clock. there are 4 colour coded tappets, 2 red 2 blue, one
set for each function, namely heating and water. simply slide the
tappets to the desired on/off times. the tappets are also marked with
tactile markings, a series of different numbers of dots.I think you may
have to specifically request a braille version of the timer. this
switch is very well designed for a blind person to use.
I would suggest giving this company a ring before purchasing, and asking
them if it will work with your particular heating system. They have a
wide range on offer, and do not forget to ask them if they can supply a
Braille version if this is required. Details as follows.
