Catalogue of disasters

It wasn't a great day for the new house today.

There was no hot water to the shower when we moved in and the hot water elsewhere was intermittent and not very hot. Plumber came to sort it out..........

Plumber ran shower for 5 minutes and water started leaking out down the side of the house! (This was spotted by the gardener)
Gardener also told us that we have red ants nests in the back garden.
Plumber then noticed that the boiler had zero pressure so increased that.
Water then leaked from the boiler into the electricity spur and blew the electricity out!

Toni was supposed to be WFH but not a lot was done with no electricity. Thankfully British Gas came to the rescue and sorted out the boiler and also fixed the electrics.

On the plus side the office has been half painted and the colour is much more suited to a working environment!
