    Most likely ice buildup, expanding and contracting with variations in temperature - defrost it.

    Old steel gas pipe removal in 1930's house

    They were in use much earlier than that. Our 1955 house had steel pipes, run along the back gardens, and quite leaky a just a few years ago due to rusting - For a few years leading up to them being replaced, we had Transco come along the back gardens regularly, with 'sniffers', inspecting for leaks.

    Whistling TRV

    What we are thinking, is that the pump pressure is so high, it is forcing the TRV to lift of it's seat slightly, making the noise. Dropping the pump speed, might be all it needs, to fix it.

    Roof tile

    You might need a gadget, to lift the tile up enough to unhook it. I made a bit of flat steel bar, with a bit of flat bar welded to the side of it, at 90 deg. You poke it under the tile, then rotate lifting the rear edge of the tile, to clear the hooks, moulded into the tile.

    New High tech cameras to enforce 20mph roads

    They enforce the limits, where it's easy, and worthwhile, where people naturally speed. Those areas where few do speed, are the ones where it is less productive, are the areas is more of an issue- the residential roads.
