    Old boiler !

    Folks. Thanks for the helpful comments. The part search continues but it's looking like it's going to be full system replacement. Balls. Ah well, looks like I will have to pony up and have the disruption earlier then initially thought. Now the complicated task of what spec system to use.

    My Car Has Been Stolen

    Absolutely shocking but sounds like you reacted sensibly in giving them what they want and getting it over with and away from you and family as quickly as possible. As others have said cars and things can be replaced. Sorry to hear you and your wife have been through it but glad you are ok.

    Old boiler !

    yes indeed. Identifying the part is easy, it's just no longer made so best chance is if it's lying in a stockroom somewhere, or available as a working used part.

    Old boiler !

    Me too. That's the ideal scenario. It's a £10 part that went out of production in 2014 with no cross over parts compatible (according to the manufacturer). I am calling suppliers but all coming up blank so far.

    Weight loss questions

    Piff. As others have offered this forum probably not the best place for advice, but from my own experience even those who know about food and exercise often get it wrong. In the gym we can fall into routines and even though we may working hard and sweating we won't necessarily be doing the...
