Hot water tap died - well went to a dribble so just assumed the ceramic valve thing had failed...
But no, a wasp managed to get into the HW system (via header tank in the loft) and blocked the hot water tap feed pipe which is only 5mm wide!

On the plus side, one less wasp for the rest of us (wimps) to worry about 😉
Immediately sell the house.
Try not to think about the fact you've been drinking rotting wasp carcass for the last few days...
Is that the new IPA from brew dog?
Dark coloration? Scant regard for water quality regulations?
Must be a blackie lawless wasp

That made me laugh out loud! 👏
Use it to get rid of the rat in mi kitchen.
From the title I was trying to figure out what direction the euphemism was going to take
We’ve had this in our bath tap before, but thanks to phenomenal mains water pressure we get, they don’t have a chance to get stuck, they just come out in pieces after going through the tap grate thing like a a chip shop chip machine.
