today

yipee, :50: I had my gas safe inspection today, all went well. It was my 1st one since 2005/6. Talking to the inspector he reckons they now have targets to find faults on installations:hand:. The majority of the complaint jobs he visits, he thinks the only reason he is there so the custard...

Evening All, I've had a Worcester Bosch 29cdi Classic installed today, as well as 5 new radiators. I'm looking for some advice on central heating water temperature, TRV settings and mobile thermostat setting. Before I go into my actual question I thought it would be best to give you a break...

Well it seems everytime I go to this bleedin bum end of the county, it goes wrong. first 48 miles to get there, and the sat nav delivers me to a track miles down a country lane and tells me "you have reached your destination", really, not a house in sight and all cows n sheep. So I continue on...

Should be an interesting race, to say the least. Especially Looking forward to the start...bosh:-)

Unearthed a live wasp's nest inside a wall on a bathroom installation today. The wasps didn't seem very happy about me ripping the wall (and thus the side of their nest) down. I've never left a bathroom so fast in my life. Luckily for me I was just ahead of my staff member, not so lucky...

I got asked to do an inspection and report on two faulty Burco lpg water boilers. The customer bought one from a retailer 9 months ago and it leaked. Tried to take it back and the retailer was having none of it. After much arguing Burco sent out a replacement direct and the ignition doesn't...

I picked the wrong week to run out of codeine :lol:

Two buildings, one behind the other with their boilers in the same boiler house, front a, back b..... With me so far? Burner a, oil tank a, burner b, oil tank b. No oil to burner b. Filters clear, oil tank b full, kbb open..... no oil..... Then you discover tank b feed burner a and tank a...

The future looks good. vaillant Eco tec 418 water looking like treacle. filter fitted in wrong place so not catching all the magnetite no automatic bypass no trv's but had been specified. custards getting onto them tomorrow. Might get the work might not depends if they are still in business...

anyone in leeds for the logic/logic+ fault finding course?

Quote to do some wiring work in a kitchen. Whilst walking the nice long 5 minute walk from my van to her house (closest I could park) she calls me... 'Hi, I'm looking for a quote to have some wiring work done in my kitchen. Here is my address, blah blah blah..' Me - 'Yes, we spoke about 5...

And in comedy fashion it doesn't work :smile:

Servicing a 2 year old Veissman today, saw this. Rang Veissman technical, the second time i've ever had to deal with these numpties. They couldn't tell me what was supposed to be there and said this is fine as long as it's not leaking. So I filled out an NCS form on it and left. I thought...

Bought a new 3 piece suite a few weeks back offered old one to British Heart Foundation who came and collected ....recieved a nice thank you letter telling us it had raised 150 quid including the gift aid where they can claim back the tax..feel happy it has helped so its just the excuse I need...

My faithful old Makita core drill died on me last week after 12 years of faithful service. I looked around and decided to go for Milwaukee. It was delivered today and I had a sink waste to install so it was with great excitement that I got my new toy out. About a third of the way in the bit...

Hey guys what type of jobs are everyone doing today / this week.

Guys, Mum passed away today, put up brave battle, she did. I'll be away from the forum for some time. All my best guys.

Had my old renault laguna v6 initiale cut out on me...stone dead. Frightening to think of this happening on the motorway; so today I shot my car. Off to Dorset, on Thursday morning, to pick-up an old Saab 9-5 SE 2.3 turbo, just cos I like them. Friday it's Norfolk as my mate requires a lift as...

Had a bit of luck today. Upon coming back from our wholesalers I noticed some building work in progress. Went to the gate and asked for the site manager, as I was looking to procure the harris security fencing they were taking down. Got chatting with him, and he asked me what I wanted it for...
