Had the plumber coming to service my boiler earlier, but he didn't turn up. 

When I phoned him he said he couldn't come as he was doing another job and wouldn't be able to come round before Christmas. 

I'm not having much luck with tradies at the mo.   

If your boiler is working, why bother with a service? They only clean things up, it can still pack up the minute he's out the door

Well if something did happen it's a handy get out for the insurance company if it hasn't been serviced within the last 12 months, and I'm a bit paranoid about gas, so like to check it's gas tight every year. 

Oh, I don't think ours has been done since we moved in.. In 2004.

Hope you have a carbon monoxide detector.

I took the battery out of ours
the constant beeping was making me dizzy and giving me a headache

Leaving the courtesy lights on in the Range Rover since Friday,  Deezil the Boxer dog wasn't happy just a road walk this morning whilst the battery recovered.

Waited in for service engineer for my warm air central heating unit. Arrived at 1 ish, took it to bits, shoved a smoke bomb up, then condemned it. Bugger.    Leaking out into the loft at the flue angled joint with the ridge tile vent. Waiting to hear if they can source the correct flue part. It can stay mild for as long as it likes.

That'll be alright. Just don't go up in the loft when the heatings on.
