Trundletrucks I have to praise myself coz nobody else will! lol. Re the police comment, I do work within the police service but not frontline, I counsel young victims of sexual abuse so to me I feel my role is as prestigious as they come and I'm privileged to do the work I do. Yep, there I go...

Whilst I thank you for taking the time to respond in relation to my question, I would like to point out that I did not come here for a personal attack based on your assumption of me, based on the sole information that I gave of me being a 30 year old female with a child in a council property...

thanks for your replies and I think under the circumstances, I'm not about to put my families lives at risk so i'll be going with the qualified heating engineer on this one!!!

bloody hell, thanks for letting me know, how safe are these then in terms of carbon monoxide leakage? and any advice on how I can safely make it babyproof?

Thanks for the reply. Bit confused now as he said i couldnt take the gas fire off and cap it so I asked him what if I built a wooden cover to put round the gas fire (like a radiator cover as I dont plan to ever actually use the gas fire itself) and fix it by screws to the wall, he told me that...
