Yes, I know.  It's just that the picture brought it home to me very powerfully; all that water, right on the doorstep!

Really comes down to how much piping will need to be laid for our 1400 sq foot semi detached

Same here. We feel that way every time we walk into the home. DM me if you're ever in SE London!

Polypipe manifold + 15mm piping installed.

Looks very nice.  Did you get every downstairs room done?

It's just the kitchen, the living room (pictured) and a toilet but yes, the entire floor run off 3 ports on the manifold. We were just about able to use a 3 port polypipe manifold.

Self leveling fibre screed (Mapei) before tiling on S2 tile adhesive (Ultra). Should be done this week!

Nearly there (minus something to cover up those pipes)

I wouldn't cover them, I'd lacquer them then add some clip-on temperature guages for the full Steampunk effect

What is the massive shunt between the heating flow and return?

Part of me wishes that rather than the isolator switch I had put in a plug on the boiler supply into a socket so that I could plug the boiler into the V2L out from the car in the event of a power cut (the viessman has the circulation pump built in)
