What are your most awkward moments while on a job? 2 of us on boiler change yesterday, nice couple in their 50's, nice house etc. The wife tells me she's going out now followed by "my husbands leaving today!" Didn't really know what to say and thought I won't mention anything to my mate till...

Hi,

Last week I removed a radiator from the landing and...
I walked off with one (forgot to ask, handy for storing loose bits) for a customer-bought tap I just fitted. She phoned to ask if I had acidentally take it with me. I told her I did and that I'd drop it round monday. Was too busy and forgot and so dropped it round tuesday. She phoned to say that...

Hi, I live in a bungalow and have a 17 year old traditional CH system with 10 radiators, a BG Multihead III pump (replaced 5 years ago) and an Ideal Classic boiler (re-located in the loft 4 years ago). The system has been serviced every year by BG.

I was very silly and flushed things I shouldn't have down my toilet.
This was 5 days ago.
Since then the toilet has been working fine and no blocks in the loo or the toilet backing up.
I am just worried, because I dont know how clean or free and empty the toilet drain pipe outside taking all...
