Try defrosting your condensate pipe (assuming you have a combo boiler)
it will exit behind the boiler to the outside (white plastic pipe about 25mm wide) pour hot water on it.
its a common problem with combo boilers plumbers should use wider pipe or insulate it.
easy fix mind.
It may be something else but worth a try:)
Unfortunately were on a communal system and the whole estate is down. Nobody can gain access to the plant room, and the breakdown service is unavailable. So looks like we're cold until the thaw starts

Mental here on Portland !
Scary winds , severe flood warning for us tonight

Yes Mr Cameron paid a flying visit to us today
Conveniently the military showed up two days before this flying visit to build the beach up lol
It's going to take more than a few diggers though the beach has been transformed by the recent weather , quite unbelievable really .
Nature will take it's course eventually and it will rebuild itself but obviously that will take a very long time .
I hope we don't have a repeat of last Wednesday just a week later !

Worrying ! I'm right next to Chesil beach and it's taken a serious battering last week the beach is virtually flat one side if never seen it so low .
The defences are mangled by the cove I dread to think what could happen with this coming storm as it coincides with a very high tide I think ?
-
That wave coming over Chesil well I live right opposite where it hit in Victoria square , never seen anything like it incredible !

I live at chiswell and I can tell you it's been one crazy night here !
I was out when the siren sounded as I'd been viewing the monster waves from a safe view point .
They were the biggest waves I've ever seen easily 30 ft some larger .
The beach road is closed and flooded a number of houses have also flooded .
We are all being told to stay upstairs and basically hope for the best !
Quite an experience and one I will never forget , having to look up at waves because they were so high was crazy !
Walls of water x

It was actually fine as far as I know , I think they did close it for a few hours though when the winds were at there worst . My garden actually came off lightly too considering how bad it was down here . The cast iron chiminea went walkies though ! Impressive considering it takes two to lift it normally !!Indeed! What was the road like out to Portland this morning from the fleet, I can imagine covered in stones?

Wow what a night here on Portland , resorted to sleeping downstairs with the kids at around 1.30 am . Living next to chesil was not pleasant last night !
-
This seems worse than predicted already ! I'm on Portland Dorset and I can tell you it's bad !

Im surprised there is no warnings out for the wind today ? It's really bad here already ! I'm on Portland though
-
Well it's pretty bad already here on Portland so I'm slightly worried about what's to come later !
-
It's pretty windy out there tonight , dread to think what it's going to be like come tomorrow night here on Portland ! Worrying !
