Whilst the boiler was off, I cooked some eggs using the remaining gas
in the pipes. Right now I am the only one home so I'm not worried about
anyone using the cooker to blow everyone up. I have purged the cooker
(just set all the cooker valves to open) for about 3 minutes but have
no idea whether it has made a difference. The pipeline is probably
about ten metres. Any help?


I think you need to explain what is so peculiar about your personal
circumstances that cooking with the boiler off should be in any way a
problem!

If you managed to cook an egg its most unlikely that your gas supply
was interrupted and Im at a loss to imagine why you think turning the
boiler off should affect your cooker.


I saw where the post originated, so concluded pretty quickly that the
poster was a thick, thick ****.


Given that he *didnt* tag his post on to a 15 yr old thread with no
quoting, I was prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt. ;-)

I remember reading somewhere about a big house explosion back in 2006.



Only one? There have been oodles of house explosions. Not sure how that
observation is relevant to the OPs question.
