Author: Andy Blackwell is a full-time plumber with A1 Perfect Plumbing in Grantham. When not plumbing he writes about plumbing, and when he's not writing about plumbing he's valiantly coping with fatherhood, which was thrust upon him fairly late in life in the form of his young son Marty. When everything gets too much he can be found wandering the woods of Lincolnshire with his dog, Truffle, in search of wild mushrooms.
