Nothing more frustrating than sitting about waiting for an engineer to call. We were up early  expecting a call between 8 and 10 am to give us an ETA. its 9   now and no call yet. Dog is crossing his legs. We can’t go out  till we get a call. Normally any jobs indoors I’ve always done myself and when you  have to get someone in,  it’s no longer under your control, as I said Frustrating.

At  3 Mins to 10  phone goes. Hello Boiler man here. I will be with you between 12 and one. Ok. So we took louis for his walk and now mavis is packing away  the bits in the van ready for the off tomorrow.

Well  the boiler is all done .It was the air pressure switch. I asked him if he could just tweak the joint  as its dripping. He said he would try it,but  what usually happens is it makes it worse. Sure enough it  did. I felt sorry for him because he  had to  dismantle the pipe a few times  clean the joint and put new washers in. But the boiler fires up  lovely now and I will keep an eye on the drip. he was such a smashing guy. We had a few laughs. I have contacted the MD and said  it was a joy to have his engineer. So efficient.

Mavis keeps testing the hot water. The look of  joy on her face when it whoomps into life and the yellow ok running light comes on. I love it.

I will have to get a nice big yellow light in the middle of my forehead.
