he's just been - popped the condensation pipe off and restarted it - got a bucket under the boiler to catch the drips for now and once things warm up he says pop it back on and we are done - every day is a school day eh? Except for school kids on snowy days it seems lol

I'm no expert but a common problem in this weather is the condensation pipe freezing (little white pipe that goes outside). Pour warm water on it to unblock it.

The M62 east bound is very slow .
This is junction 22 Denshaw.
The snake and woodhead pass are also closed.
I’m waiting on a call to possibly go into work in Rochdale. I may tell them to do one!

snake pass closes if it gets a bit chilly - thats not news - the Snake has always been a bleeder in winter

Found that issue years ago, so I rerouted the pipe so it stays indoors.
The temp yesterday was -16 and the flue had a huge icicle hanging from it and covered in snow. When the sun came out I guess it melted it.

That's pretty quick for the stagecoaches they use on that route. It must be too cold for the highwaymen.

it was closed due to snow - in the UK - they were pissing themselves so much at how we fail to cope they thought it was safer to close and get the laughing over before re-opening
