it worked for me.

I know it sounds mad but i considered it an emergency and i needed to sort it in double quick time, as my hands were getting number and colder by the minute.

But who do you call if you have a sparking connection nasa??

Take this either way you want

Leave the plumbing and gas fitting to the pros and re train as a painter and decorator / push the boat out plastering

who would you call in an emergency, when a job suddenly goes pear-shaped? When the stopcock head that you (I) thought was down to low pressure, turned out to be fully live and you had water spurting out and you realised you couldn`t get the head back on?

In that situation, certainly not the fire brigade.

SteveWannadoGas, what's your background?

Reason I ask is that I am really struggling with the fact you called the fire brigade to do your job. It's not a case of who you going to call when it all goes breasts up, it's about knowing what you are doing and also having a contingency plan when something does go wrong.

Oh and by the way the contingency plan isn't dialling 999.

Just out of interest, what did the fire brigade do?

 

[Stanios]

Hard to laugh at that cos I know I've done stuff live, I've used freeze kits. Theres only a thin line between dry and a swimming pool...
