    Come on guys help out here.

    So freeview bloke catches two 10mm radiator pipes when drilling from outside to inside for a new cable.

    Water is turned off and the system drained.

    Plumber turns up, makes bigger hole and cuts and replaces two sections of 10mm pipe

    Then turns back on water and bleeds the radiators. Now all full.

    Central heating kicks in. Hot water comes on as well as central heating but the radiators are failing to heat up(but we have hot water).

    Any ideas?

        While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

          For hot water yes. Central heating no. Luckily it's not cold.

          So now I'm going to use my Homecare with British Gas. Be out tomorrow.

          So much for saving myself a few quid on my TV.

            He's on to the third workman already by the sounds of it. Then he needs a plaster followed by a decorator so that is 5 workmen to save £50 a month.

              You could have got cable for that.

                  And Refridgerator insurance? And insurance for the cooker??? As well as comprehensive contents / buildings insurance and full travel insurance.

                  You got to be prepared.

                  Actually just counted the number of radiators in the house. 25. My BTL has 4.

                    It's a pity you could not buy insurance from being stupid.

                      Trust me insurance is a godsend.

                      I live in one of the safest, crime free places in the whole of the UK. In the last 7 years we've been broken into 3 times and the thieves have stolen over £50,000 pounds worth of antiques, books, jewellery and American Comics which luckily I was able to Google images for.

                      God knows what happens will happen if the burglars come back and steal this bad boy I picked up in a car boot for a fiver.
