yeah I had a bit of a read up about it all then I read a post about someones boiler starting to fail as it wasnt putting enough hot water into the system so the bath tap wasnt working, so obviously I jumped to OMG MY BOILER IS GOING TO EXPLODE! lol
Just had another go at the heating and its not working at all.. pah, got the little sheet out that the landlord gave us on how it works and .. nothing. We had a boiler service a couple of months ago and the man said that the boiler is really old and rubbish, said he was going to suggest the landlord replace it but he wouldnt expect it would be, so at least we have that in our defence, Mind you I give him £550 a month so he can come and replace it if its sodding broken. Our estate agents have a plumber on their staff whos been 'coming to look at our taps' for 2 weeks. Getting sick of washing from the sink, I just want a bath!! rant over lol.
My OH is going to look at the taps tomorrow, mind you not to de-masculate him but hes a hopeless as me, im going to use your washer idea so I look clever

lol. Hopefully tho it will sort it and I can get a bath. Mind you, looking at how slowly the water is heating up that may not happen either!! why couldnt this have happened in the summer!! lol.
