    Best I can think of for MSE lagging Lou is old tights stuffed with newspaper put around the bit of the pipe that freezes. I'll also ask Pint tomorrow about a substitute for lagging til the New Year

    Don't want to scare you Lou, but if it keeps happening the pipes might burst, since water expands when it freezes. Have you got some old towels or something you can wrap round them? Tie them on with gaffa/sello tape.
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    It was pleasant company.
    Bit of a pretentious restaurant - big plates and little portions but tasted good. Bit scary through the lanes with ice and fog and TomTom packed up on way home - the in car charger seems to have died so the battery goes.
