Very true,,,,, Owners of Baby Blakes (mostly) swear by them except if
they need to buy bits when they/we swear at them. I'm just fitting a
new inlet pump body,the old one was split by frost, my fault, lack of
proper lay up. The last inch or so of the pump stays full of water and
an inch of frozen water splits bronze. The new one cost £130+.
Have you seen the GOLD PLATED version? £2000 plus. For that sort of
money I'd expect the man from Blakes to come and use it for me. Like
the Queen, it's well known she never uses the toilet. She has people
to do that sort of thing for her.
