Yeah - I've been thinking about it a lot today and have decided I'm
just being overkill and a DS18S20 sensor with heatsink paste between
the sensor and the pipe, all jubilee clipped to the pipes and some
sort of silicon sealant like cover would be more than sufficient for
my needs.  The sensor is rated up to 125 deg C anyway, which is way
more than the 90 deg C maximum my boiler can output.

Thanks to everyone for all your help - was a lot of use in calming
down my thoughts! :)
