They have an online link to see if your nearest is affected by the delay, and it brings up a list of 420 outlets, as far south as Lincoln. My local outlet, 5 km away, is in a branch of Sainsbury's which is open 7 days a week. But I don't know what days their van drivers work. ID: 110414 ·      Reply Quote

Much easier with the right rods rather than drain rods though even then the most difficult bit was getting the baffle plates of the wood stove back in properly. This time it only took about six goes. - About half the number it takes the professional when he does it so I can get a certificate. ID: 110470 ·      Reply Quote
