My boilers pilot light will light OK but as soon as water or heating is switched on the light slowly dies and then goes out completely and I can hear a ckicking sound as it goes outaltogether. Any ideas what the problem is.

lots of reasons.have you had it serviced?the way you explain it it sounds if you have a lack of air check your terminal is not obscured or covered in any way.
check thermocouple time to drop out.
or could be an overheat stat.
