Both points taken! The leak, however, is always in the most inaccessible place!

We had a valve that had to be replaced in the purifier room - Again, a job for me! It involved removing a plate and working "blind", upside down, like an ostrich for most of a "day work" day! Bluddy 2/E kept coming past and saying things like,"Haven't you finished yet!". The worst thing was it was surrounded by steam trace pipes for the fuel oil. 54 degrees in the ER, more in purifier room and even more below the plates with that all pervading HFO smell! I really had to rehydrate in the bar that evening!
