Do you have a fancy bank account with perks, such as home emergency?


If so, give them a call, and they will send out a nice heating and plumbing engineer to fix the boiler for you.
Our PCB went last year, and I have a fancy bank account with perks, which covered me to fix my boiler up to the cost of 200 quid.

Failling that, the electrodes do burn up, also the condensate trap blocks up giving a similar effect.
Tat doesn't sound very environmentally friendly. What he really needs is to recycle it by finding a piece of the allspark and bringing it to life as a handy helper robot.

Certainly not - as long as you're not living there and you don't light any matches when you're there, I think you're good.

Don't be ridiculous Bib, You're completely overstating the dangers.

Gav is perfectly safe and for anyone who doubts it here's a picture of his new house:

no danger of gas getting trapped inside anymore.
