perhaps what goes around comes around: you do 90+ but don't get caught, you then do 32 and you do get caught.

cheers - will look into it

will look into where they lead to, but in the short term, how do I make the ends of the wires safe in case they are live. (BAS- planning to put thermostatic valves on the radiators)

It was interesting to see that the person who won the job was not the person with the best selling skills, managing skills, idea generation skills,etc.. He was basically the most inoffensive of them all and whilst obviously a clever guy, had no strong business charateristics either way. This...

Fair questions re how boiler knows when to change temp - being no expert either i don't know. I don;t think it does. Over the last winter anyway, the only way to change the temperature has been to do it manually using either the dial on the combi or at the radiators themselves. Pretty sure...

I have moved into a house that has a combi boiler and so there is no use for the wall mounted thermostat, which has subsequently been removed. However, this has left three wires petruding from the living room wall. We plan to redecorate at some point (when I've saved a bit more money) but in...

There are so many lines of argument we can go down regarding the rights and wrongs of going to univerisity. Personally, I think the growing train of thought that you have to have a degree or you are considered second rate is a dangerous path to follow. To live in a county that has a derth of...

I have a Baxi Combi 105e boiler in a two bed terraced house with a toal of five radiators. One of the upstairs radiators seems to constantly be warm, even the boiler is turned to hot water only. I thought perhaps it had been plumbed into the hot water and not the CH, but when the CH is on it...

Fair enough the banter has certainly brightened up my Tuesday back at work Great web-site by the way - has solved all sorts of problems with my combi 105e boiler!

thank you to all those who made really useful comments!! Please try and remember your remarks next time you: - but too much paint (eg) when decorating and want to return some - buy/receive a gift that is then un-wanted and try and return it - your missus buys two items in the clothes shop...

As I say, complaint wasn't about the price (although £15 in my pocket is better than in someone's till). The point was about the deviation from policy and attitude of the manager. Agree that I shouldn't need a brolly - think I'll have to move somewhere hot
