A helpful tip for these winter evenings...

If you need to bleed your radiators (cos they've got air in them) don't do it when the central heating is on and the water in said radiator is boiling hot.

Ouch!!

That's a bit like the time my light bulb went, after being on for several hours, and some bright spark decided she'd try to unscrew the light bulb before it had cooled down. I had scars on my fingertips for *ages* (Good job no one needed to fingerprint me!)

You could have used your lack of fingerprints to your advantage and become a temporary international jewel thief...

I know, then I couldn't get the little tap thing to close due to the hot water trying to exit the radiator at speed. The plumbers I know will be so disappointed!

Rule #1: Always leave key in slightly.

Rule #2: stick hand on radiator and feel when water is near top.

I've learnt my lesson the hard way too. Bonus was that it'd been so long since it was last bled the water came out black, and spewed onto our nice beige carpet. Doh!

Ouchies!

I don't even know what you're talking about. I need to learn how to take care of a house.
