Definatly especially when they walk around with their arse out and hands down the front of their trousers.

 

[Deleted member 44451]

i think mr whyme as been boiling for some time looking at his list. what about service valves that leak when you touch them with the screwdriver, fitted to save draining the whole system down but by the time you need them their usless and need changing.
