Gas again...

caddymanThe saga of the gas supply continues.
I am sitting here after discovering (yet again whilst doing laundry) that we have no hot water and that the boiler really, really doesn't want to play, thank you very much.
This time, as recommended by the electric gas plumber last time he stared at the boiler, I have called Transco and they are sending an engineer "within the hour" (they don't like gas explosions; they're bad for business). In the meantime I am not allowed to turn anything on or off and have had to isolate the gas supply and wait.
So I'm waiting.
God, I hope this works, I would like a piping hot shower before I go to bed.
Edited to add: Transco have been and gone; gas pressure back at a lovely 21mB. Water heating as I type. I can smell a rogue radiator warming up; I shall track it down and subdue it.
