Someone bought me a Canon PowerShot (?) something-or-other years ago, and I used it maybe 10 times in as many years! It could be in a drawer, perhaps....or maybe binned in a big clearout! Same with mobile phones - the only one I ever had was a Motorola (I think), the size of a breeze block, with...

Well, Sunday's been and gone, as did the plumber, spot on time. He's not a big fan of dogs getting under his feet - especially a 9 month old dippy labrador - so I disappeared for an hour. Back, I started quoting from my printouts. He didn't actually say anything, but I could tell he didn't...

Do I notice a little bit of "attitude" creeping in on some of these posts?! There seems to be an assumption that plumber boy hasn't done all of the tests that you have mentioned! He claims so, and with my scant knowledge of pipework and things akin to, who am I to argue? He disappears upstairs...

I've no doubt that the quality advice received from you and others is just that - quality - but as I've mentioned before, I know zilch about boilers/pressure/flow! If I open the airing cupboard, all I see is a mass of copper pipes going here there and everywhere (and usually an F22 flashing on...

The plumber calleth. Two months overdue, and without any prior warning, he turned up at teatime. Showed him the records, 12 episodes of F22's during June, and also told him about the rise in pressure (?) overnight when nobody was using anything. He managed to get the upstairs shower working - at...

Bit dopey this morning...late night is my excuse.... :cool: Forgot the bathroom "routine", God forbid. Ripped the front off the airing cupboard to check for F22. No...good. Would've been a surprise, because I topped up 24 hours ago. Then, the error on my part... Washed hands first.....whoa...

Done it, matey. Only lasts so long, as I've found out...

Morning, boys.... In answer to recent questions, yes, the CH is (always) off overnight. The pressure numbers quoted - 0.9 and 1.3 - were indeed the last/first observed. After washing and a use of toilet flush it then rose to the 1.6 mark. I'll take a photo of the (permanent) filling loop, but...

I asked the same question about fluid loss - the answer was "a mug full". I take your point about finding damp patches, but there is absolutely no sign, even over summer when the CH isn't on. Bear in mind our F22 is currently every other day, that's a fair amount of liquid to not spot, if you...

Well, as far as I know, all the "check items" mentioned above in various posts have been done....not by me, I hasten to add - I'll not go near it with a bargepole! Whether it's all part and parcel, I don't know, but for the past few months we've had lots of water problems. I've mentioned all...

We/the plumber tried the leak sealer idea - it worked for a few weeks/months, but it was ironic that we still continued checking for errors every day, such was the habit/routine we'd adopted over the months! I'm not sure about them being "good boilers"....both internal PCBs have had to be...

Yes, they're back. Actually, for some weeks now. Every 2 days or so, boiler error F22. Just checking the wall calendar, this morning's was the 11th this month. Still no sign of a leak anywhere, so suspicious that if it is a leak, it'll be under the only concrete floor we have. According to the...

Just had to yell at a couple of kids down by the riverside, because they were cobbing rocks and pebbles at the birds down there. Yes.... It was simply a case of leaving no tern unstoned...

I've had five wives. Three of them were mine....

So, Princess Anne in bed with concussion... A knock on the head, as opposed to the punk band...

Just been asked to audition for one of our local bands, "The Prevention". Not seen/heard them myself, but apparently they're even better than The Cure....

Thanks, chaps...

Cheers, men. Will have a gander at what you suggest... (It's Brave browser, by the way)

Well, it is BT broadband....I've just done a speedtest (by Ookla) and got download of 4.53, upload of 7.20, so not the best. OS is Windows 10 Home, and up to date...

In the past few weeks I've been having this curious - and very irritating - experience when using my laptop. No matter which site I open, I first get a "bare bones" version of the page...the only way to show what should be shown is to hit the "Reload this page" button, top left. Sometimes even...
