Dear Worcester Bosch,

Please can we have a boiler that you can run the pipes straight up the back of because if they have to cross internally you end up with this!

I can't wait until one of Lord Cross's boys has to replace the PRV in about three years or so, they aint gonna be happy :lol:

All assembled and squeezed in (and yes you do have to burn the wall the pipes have to butt tight against it or the calorifier fouls the pipework) :roll:

It's brilliant, I'm loving all their 12v stuff :thumbright:

I wouldn't have that gutless SDS drill though :lol: :lol: :lol:

When are you going to review the inspection camera? :wink:

The inspection camera is disappointing to be honest, but perhaps it is me

I think if you use it in an area with too much light the picture is crap. It’s also difficult getting the neck to bend on it.

When I get chance I’ll have a proper play with it and film the results.

Not too impressed with the 12v sds drill, but it would be handy if working at heights on brick etc.

what a stupid decision that was "its not gas related" while being attached to a gas boiler

yet we can still classify unvented blowoffs.
