I gave blood from being 18 until I was 40 apart from when I weighed under 6 stone when they wouldn't take it, but after having a transfusion myself after an accident I'm not allowed to give blood anymore.

That may well be the £150 fee to call out an engineer

I can do hoovers and bleed radiators. Replaced the clutch in our dyson for £25 a while ago. A job, incidently, that our local repairman said they no longer did because it was too complicated:eek:. It did take me almost an hour but with the right tools would have taken 10 minutes. Saved me the cost of a new dyson:)
Never even knew they had clutches!!
Luck has not been with you there AAU. Any idea why it has suddenly started to leak??“Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?”

I see talk of bleeding radiators, well tonight i have been all under my house and tracked down a burst pipe
It explains why my boiler pressure keeps dropping and the hall smells of fish :eek:
Must be recent because we had all new carpets laid last month and didnt see any damp floorboards then. Plumber coming tomorrow
That's a nuisance- not just a washer that needs tightening? I had the same a few years back with a leaking radiator. I turned the radiator off so no water would go in. The boiler pressure did drop and I kept having to let more water in to system...plumber and spending money on new rad was the only solution for me:eek::eek:never stop doing your best because someone doesn't give you credit0 -
