Actually have the service planned for in 2 weeks.
The pilot looks like its wanting to light as can see the flicker of the
igniter, also tried with a match, no go.

Can you remove the pilot gas tube, and blow through it? That's all that my
friendly CORGI chap did some years ago to service my Potterton boiler. (It
worked, and it still works many years on.)
