I'm afraid to say I no longer work for Professional Independent Training Techniques. I can say that the forum was down due to something being up with the database (teething problems I think) and it is all running again now. ....but you could have called them. :wink:

hehe, sorry not been on for a while due to being busy at work. I will catch up over the next few days.

My central heating header tank has no water in it. Can I spit in it lots?

I will write one up withing the next few days then. Cheers for that. p.s. Can it include small diagrams?
