The P|SS BOILER is gas. The burner light kept turning itself off this week, sporadically. The reset button happily brought it back to life, so I booked it a service for next week.

The hot water has worked all week, the problem was just the central heating constantly kicking itself back into summertime mode, not supplying heated water to the rads.

But this evening, no amount of button pressing will get it going rolleyes
I stink like fryups and fags, and I have a dinner date in 35 minutes frown

I have absolutely no clue when it comes to boilers, I usually just smile politely at the contraption if I walk past it, as it lives in my home.

I didn't say I had a point. Just killing some time whilst the kettle boils for the umpteenth time, so I can plunge my arse and testicles in an inch of water before I fly out the door.

Any top tips? (Wahey, It's PH open season!)
And any top tips on getting boilers going again?

Not a top tip about boilers, but it's always worth having an electric shower as well if you have more than one bathroom; it's a handy backup.

You want one of those old-fashioned boilers that makes a tankful of hot water - that way you get 24-48 hours notice that sonmething's wrong.
