My grandad's boiler was on the floor, so you had to lay down and hold a button in whilst pressing another - made a bang. No sign of a flame though. Ten to fifteen minutes of this and eventually you'd get a flame. Then it'd go out. So out came the screwdriver and matches. Was the same with my old boiler, only it was high on the living room wall, so a stool was needed. It's much better is the new boiler, though it's no doubt costing me a leg in electric.
