Interesting. The kitchen sink taps - a fancyarsed thing, 2 taps, 1 outlet - and the bathroom sink taps (Bristan?) were fitted at the same time...a couple of years ago. As for isolating valves...I wouldn't know one if it hit me in the April...

Someone above mentioned Severn Trent... I looked on their site this afternoon, and noted one of their "Test your water flow" suggestions. () Given certain conditions, it should take 7 seconds to fill a 1 litre bottle. With our stoptap at circa 5 to the hour - i.e. nearly closed - it took between...

Right, chaps... Borrowed the neighbour's phone again - didn't realise you could do videos on these things as well! Very clever! Anyway, I chickened out a little - I opened the stoptap one whole revolution from closed and tried the bathroom hot tap.... Just a little 6" flavour of it. Not so...

I think I've already done it, but in case I missed anyone.... Thanks for all the suggestions! There really are some superb people on this forum... Cheers.

Hmmm...OK. Time to be a little more descriptive maybe. I don't know whether the two problems - i.e. the F22 boiler errors, and the rattling pipes issue - were/are one and the same issue. The boiler F22 problem seems to have been allayed for the time being. Haven't had an error since the magic...

Yes, Severn Trent for clean, Yorkshire Water for waste. Causes all sorts of fun when (say) a roadside leak is spotted and reported! You have to identify - with photo if possible! - the shape and size of the nearest/offending manhole before ST or YW will take any action...

Fitted less than 2 years ago, replacing the old seized one.

The beast, corner cupboard with a hole in the back, next to the kitchen sink. Could it be in a more awkward position? Probably not, but anyway, here's the best shot I can get with a borrowed phone.... As I said, 3 mins-or-so to the hour. Turn an "inch" to the right - circa 5 past - water off.

Would you?! Don't fancy trying it, if a mere 10 degrees can cause so much trouble! God knows what would happen. How many revolutions would you expect, fully open to fully closed? 3? 4? 4 x 360? No ta!

No phone, so.... Actually, that's a thought. Borrow my neighbour's (if he's in) ask about their pressure.

Hmmmm...who knows. I'm not a plumber. All I know is what I've written before - at 5 mins past the hour, the water's off. At 12 o'clock, it's virtually a dribble. At only 5 mins to the hour, it blows your socks off, rattling pipes like you wouldn't believe, and forcing the neighbours to...

Ah yes, done similar with wistia and vimeo jobs over the years, but hotmart's product is a different ball game. If you google "can I/how to save/download/copy hotmart..." type questions, you'll soon find a plethora of answers, none of which seem to work! I've given up in this case, and have...

I'll pretend to know exactly what you're talking about, graham88, but regret to tell you that I don't possess a mobile phone! But thank you anyway!

Well, boys, it is "the end". Hotmart were unable to help, and like the helpful bloke at Teachable, suggested there's a problem with the source file. Going with porker's advice above, I again contacted the originator and they kindly reset the presentation, giving me a new account number and link...

What?! No interest?! :rolleyes:

Looking for something else - isn't it always the way?! - I've come across my old Abbey National Instant Saver pass book, harking back to the days when I (presumably) bothered to try and save something! Looking through the entries, the balances kept on decreasing most of the time (!), with the...

Another Yank job has just occurred to me... "Mirror". They can't say that properly either...

Wasn't aware, so thanks! I'll strap on the ol' knee pads, shuffle as best I can through the cupboard, and have a gander. Then I'll swear, back out, and next time remember my torch!

Well, you say that, but...... :) It is relatively new. The original was impossible to turn, and although it's in a nigh-on impossible to get to location, the plumber managed to replace it a couple of years ago. How he managed to do it, I honestly don't know! On his knees, having to lean into...

Ah...you mean the one under the kitchen sink, then! No, that's virtually closed. As I mentioned above, at "5 past the hour" it's closed. Nothing gets through. On the hour, we get water, but it's a dribble. Currently it's (maybe) 3 minutes to. At 5 minutes to, all hell breaks loose!
