Hi yes i have a frozen soil waste pipe.The reason for this i think is that i have a bathroom sink waste which is connected into it .This i suspect has dripped++++ causing the build up of ice and hence the blockage.The blockage is probably 2/3 feet down but is difficult to say.I've tried pouring boiling water down with little effect.The other problem is the pipe is cast iron.Any ideas?

A good curry should shift it
As its iron then I doubt a hairdryer would have much effect. Hot air gun or blowlamp on lower setting might get enough heat into the pipe to start melting it a bit. Once you can get some water moving i'd put hot water down the bathroom sink to try and melt the rest of it away.
