Hi - this has been discussed many times in the last few weeks - have a scan around the plumbing forum and you will find similar problems with advice.

Leaving the filling loop open is NOT a solution!  I guess your lucky your mains pressure is low!

Here is a start: http://www.askthetrades.co.uk/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl?num=1292519262

Check the pressure relief pipe that goes through the wall, is it dripping/running when the boilers on.

Keep topping it up with fresh water will kill the boiler.
