Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
I now have heating again and the boiler is serviced with a rapidly warming up house! Time to remove some items of clothing!

We are £141 lighter after having our Combi boiler serviced. I asked if the hot water would come through quicker now that he had cleaned it and he was happy with the emissions etc. He looked sort of blank and said 'I didn't touch that part, I'm only here to service it' I said what about the electrics? 'Oh! I don't do electrics' What does a boiler service entail? Ever get the feeling you've been done?

My boiler was serviced for £70 and the motorised switch that was broken in the airing cupboard was replaced for £25 so im happy and to top things off i tried to pay them but they said they would send a bill.
My plumber also said he didn't do electrics as they are not aloud to unless they're signed off he said.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
I recently thought I would try the Aldi online photo service to collate an hardback album of photos I took during my niece's wedding.
I was surprised by a few things, firstly that the software was relatively easy to use for the album layout, secondly that the price was reasonable, thirdly it arrived 3 days after I placed the order - and finally that the album supplied exceeded my expectations for the quality of the presentation.
No links, in deference to the forum rules on spamming, the service is not free - but if anyone is looking to collate a photo album for a gift, or memento, in my opinion the Aldi service is worth looking at

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
My gas and electricity bill is in credit so my new monthly payments are roughly half what they were before.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
My Consultants managed to get me accepted on to a medical trial and the new tablets mean no more crushing headaches. Now if they can just get the dosage right I feel I might be able to get back to my normal routine for the first time in months.
