@cardiff_gareth, Something seems odd! If oil filter was the leak - which is not that unusual, just a little carelessness on filter at the last oil change, then why the clutch/brake issue/repair? If it was clutch slave inside clutch housing then how did they know it was failing? Other symptoms? I...

:D we have another 6" or so... it was fun this morning as they hadn't ploughed much ;) Anyways, no serious issues as expected and another 4" or so should turn up over night. I'll be surprised if my train is late in the morning... Might go out for a quick drive later to complete the white-out ...

The Boiler is a Worcester 28i RSF - Strangely enough it did this earlier this year [ the early cold snap ] and the guy that came out from my plumbers could not find the reason for it , but switching things off and on and just generally fiddling and it kicked into action again. It was serviced...

Well - we have discussed this - and as it's had 2 repairs already the decision is made - new boiler . The firm I deal with [ a very old established company ] no longer recommend repairs to boilers of this type/age , they found they were constantly having to keep fixing them . I do trust them and ...

It is 4C here today and has rained. Unfortunately the ground is still frozen - so there is ice on all the untreated surfaces - which means the pavements of course. Most rods have been salted. all the bike tracks have been salted, but not the pavements. Some people have cleared their snow, others hav...

I agree with Tony on the nutritional value - cook it then eat the box, But I suggest they were not totally without merit. Going back to the sixties they were probably the first introduction for a lot of people. Possibly a clue that there was more out there than just fish and chips.

HOORAY - things are on the up Sadly no men to do the new boiler [ saw then at someone who's disabled - so that's fair enough - he takes priority. BUT most of the snow from the garden has gone - I could get into the caravan and bring out the other fan heater and 2 fleece blankets :) I got...
