Calamity

Just when you think everything's under control...

At around 5pm tonight a 15 year old push fit connector on a 22mm hot water pipe under the bath in room 4 blew off. Fortunately (and completely accidentally) Lorna spotted it about twenty minutes later, but by then several hundred gallons of hot water had been dumped on the function room. Our plumber who we have been so rude about in the past attended within ten minutes and has now most favoured nation status.

Things could have been a lot worse. No paint finishes or carpets were damaged - the function room has not been carpeted yet. The room and everything in it is pretty soggy though. We'll need to wait until morning to assess any damage.

Time for another beer.
