Roger the Boiler is an absolute life-saver.<br /><br />Karla - See, now, I would kill for a wood-burning stove but we have absolutely nowhere in our house to put one, believe me, we've seriously thought about it. I am, however, insistent that our 'next house' must have either an open fire or, preferably, a woodburner (along with enough land for a decent fruit 'n' veg patch, freerange chickens and a water source. Oh, and enough money to pay for it!!!)Mrs Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06289121990808465890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6528663482752743529.post-43811017659360369602010-03-11T11:28:15.300+00:002010-03-11T11:28:15.300+00:00Now that's why I love our log burning stove!

It's our only form of heat as I refuse to use the storage heaters (useless and expensive) and it does the job tremendously well. <br />Glad to hear you're all toasty warm again now.<br />Cousin K xxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6528663482752743529.post-2783496776414217012010-03-10T22:54:27.217+00:002010-03-10T22:54:27.217+00:00Glad to hear it all worked out for you today the t...Glad to hear it all worked out for you today the temp is still so cold at night.<br /><br />Sorry to hear the techno imps like to tease you but it does make for a good enjoyable read :)Kellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04007237364629419063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6528663482752743529.post-2704821558381061892010-03-10T18:14:37.610+00:002010-03-10T18:14:37.610+00:00Pinklea - hello!

I like putting lots of pictures on my postings so it was troubling me that I didn't have one for this, then I remembered that I had ones of the boiler on my iPhone, so there you are! Roger the Boiler Man has thankfully been - seems the thermocouple had burned out so there was no possibility of me ever getting the pilot light lit again. Everything is now very toasty!Mrs Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06289121990808465890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6528663482752743529.post-50864909436674006702010-03-10T17:54:24.631+00:002010-03-10T17:54:24.631+00:00Well, I can't say I've ever come across a ...Well, I can't say I've ever come across a blog with a photo of a boiler before! <br />Anyway, my dad used to repair such boilers when I was little and he made sure that my mom, brother and I could all check and relight the pilot light. So imagine my discomfort when I discovered that the house I currently live in has a furnace with electronic ignition and NO pilot light! I don't know what to check on it! I feel like something is missing!<br />Good luck with your repairs - hope you get warm soon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
