Of anything in particular? :D There's a picture of the plumbing in my airing cupboard earlier in the thread.

There was still noise there this morning - this time from the hot water cylinder more than the heating. There was the sound of gurgling/trickling from the pump and an occasional 'gloop' from the cylinder (not the loft). I've just kicked the system into action (first time it's been on in four...
