The Gasman Cometh

[giveup]

Had a call about an hour ago from British Gas asking if I would like my annual service this afternoon.I agreed and the man turned up just now. When I remarked it was unusual he said they have got very little work due to the mild weather . Mind you he's still checking my boiler,hope everything is OK.

sssshhhh, don't tell some AB'ers you have a man in :-)
They get jealous y'know.

Happy New Year giveup, hope it's a good one for you xx

[giveup]

Thanks alba he's just gone after trying to sell me some gadget which I'm going to ask about on here.(£250) He was'nt bad but a bit scrawny for my taste (mind you they do say any port in a storm). Happy New Year to you and yours.

I hate to say it, but I did wonder if he was going to ry to sell a gadget.

Hope some of the brainy ones are around (The Builder, Buildersmate and so on)

You're lucky giveup. Phoned Scottish Power at the end of November and have to wait til 1st Feb for my boiler service.

Might be worth trying again maggiebee. What has your weather been like?

[askyourgran]

They usually ring me in July to service mine, and then in November/December when I need it it breaks down.

[giveup]

I'm always glad when its been done,it means hopefully the boilers OK for another year.
