    Morning Dove. Yes, I thought it was strange. We haven’t identified it yet.

    Morning all. 
    The poor plumber " didn't like to wake" us so was sitting outside waiting for sings of life. We were waiting to hear the door bell. 
    bless'im, he's got a coffee now

  • @Hostafan1 :)  The idea of ‘sings of life’ appeals ... a little something from Carmen perhaps?

    Methinks he's found the problem. A perished washer in the underfloor controls pipework. Reckon it's been seeping ,and the heat of the system has caused it evaporate,so we've never noticed it, but in time the leakage causes the pressure to drop and the system "trips out".
    It'll be nice to have peace of mind when we go away on Monday night.

  • Peace of mind is a wonderful thing @Hostafan1 :)

    All fixed!
    I love our plumbers ( father and son ) He's been here almost 2 hours, between christmas and new year:
    " How much do we owe you ?"
    " Give me £25, that's enough " 
    " here's £35, buy yourself a drink tonight"

  • Good morning all,
    Getting fed up with the dull overcast weather. I wonder if it's too late to book a holiday with Hosta? 
    Hi Pat. We have something similar to your mystery fly called a bee fly.
