  7. Boiler man not impressed that I have Jimmy Carr's old phone number.

  9. Boiler man really happy with the matching crowns I made for me and him. "Just what I fucking wanted". V happy!!
  10. "I Know a Song That Will Get On Your Nerves" seems to have upset the Boiler Man. He just shouted in the garden.
  11. Boiler Man is having fun! RT @boilerman He's doing impressions of the characters from Monkey now.
  12. Boiler Man stopped Kissy-Time & is going early but he's clearly confident in my abilities. "You can fit this fucking boiler yourself".

  15. The boiler man said he wishes I was as far away as possible. New Zealand? I could do with a holiday, sweet man.

  20. The Boiler Man has listened to 4 episodes of Precious Little today. Or as much of it as I could remember anyway.
