That's the basin fully connected and working on the radiator, overnight I think all the knowledge has sunk in that bit more and I'm pretty much flying along with the installation, especially when you consider I've not done any plumbing before.

I've managed all the pipe bends with ease and soldered all the joints as cleanly as a novice can and they survived the air test for a whole two minutes before one of the solder joints blew; at least my installation wasn't full of what at the time. But what a godsend air testing is, without it I reckon the solder would have held for a while before starting a slow leak. A quick re-solder and the repair is complete.

Now it's time to fill the system will water and as I open the valve I have to admit to being a little nervous, but I needn't have worried as not a drop was spilt. I've bled my radiator and the toilet flushes perfectly. Basin taps and waste work a treat, not a leak in sight!

During lunch I was suggesting to the other course members that maybe John would be downstairs in the training room rigging our installations for leaks, just so that we could learn to cope with even more snags. Little did I know that before I finished my lunch, someone had done just that to my job, a few smiling faces; all in the name of fun. And I learned how to cope with the leaks as well.

After completing our installation, John took us through the removal and re-installation of a bath and a whole host of things to look for the ensure that we don't get caught out.

The last thing before we get our certificates, John opens the floor for questions and answers to go through anything we're are not sure of. There was only a few things raised, but as usual John is only too happy to full explain and put our minds at ease.
