That's everyone with a combi boiler up **** creek then.

Apart from the ones with electric showers:-)

The very reason I have resisted changing to a combi-boiler.

Even if power failed and we had neither boiler nor immersion, we'd still
have 40 gallons of hot water and with care could eke that out for a
couple of days before it became freezing cold to shower.

Shurely after the first 20 gallons had gone the temperature of
your "hot" water would be literally diluted by replacement
incoming mains cold?
Bagsy first shower!
