puddingcatI have a suspicion that my life is turning into the Monty Python Gasman sketch, the only difference being that they go away again.
Bloke turned up bang on 10 this morning and spent an hour poking the boiler. He admitted at the end that he wasn't sure *why* it hadn't been working, because all the bits were there & in good condition. What worked in the end was removing the paddle by the water flow sensor, cleaning it, and replacing it.
It worked well enough for me to have a shower. I don't smell any more!

Had one plumber come when we were renting this house to look at a dodgy boiler, his ad said free quote, and when he got here he said he could do that but he'd have to charge us for looking at the boiler before giving a quote. Another one said that yes, after we paid a £50 call out fee he'd give us the free quote as per his advert. So many rip off merchants!
