As far as I'm aware this is a shaving forum, not a gentleman forum. Sorry to hear of your misfortune lately MarkB. Hope things look up for you soon.
What made my day crap? After fitting a third new heater valve on my fiesta after the original disintegrated in traffic, losing all coolant and making me look stupid at rush hour, the first new one wouldn't shut off the hot air at all, the second worked for a week then same story, I went with a third OEM part which doesn't shut off the hot air at all. At a considerably higher price. So now it's another part of my weekend which will be wasted removing it, getting a lift back to euro for a replacement, then a while fannying around fitting it and praying that the 4th brand new one actually works. All while in the mean time driving to and from work in rush hour traffic with the heating jammed on full.
