Phil was here and I was off decorating with two brave volunteers, my folks! We are decorating the stairs and landing so its a three day job and Phil is here to complete the final plumbing work now that I have decanted the oil barrels from the patio into our new oil tank.
Problem 1 - Two leaks in the internal pipework, the first a minor dripping in the study that needed a little solder on the join, the second a poor seal on a radiator valve.
Problem 2 - Open valve on the second bedroom radiator has meant we have water coming through the kitchen ceiling through a light fitting, thankfully its sealed for fireproofing so its still OK.
Problem 3 - Duff boiler, well this one was the show-stopper. The boiler is broken, Phil says its the second one out of two to have this problem but the engineer came over and says he will have the required part for tomorrow morning.
Not a good day, still no heating although the landing is looking good with its first coat on all the walls and ceiling.
