So, not only has the flat been really sodding cold thanks to malfunctioning boiler for the past three months, tonight I was alerted to something odd by Sabre, who was staring into the kitchen in finest "on point" mode. (Well, I say "alerted": I muttered something indulgent about him being a silly bugger, hopped over to the kitchen door, and then ( Read more... )

Ugh, that sucks! I found a slug in my kitchen today which I think means there's a hole in the wall somewhere (probably around the pipe the goes out of the washing machine) but my travails pale in comparison to yours!

*hands you a towel* Remember to save some water for Sabre.

Now we must get you out of those damp cloths, you'll catch your death.

You have my deepest sympathy. Leaks are severely NOT FUN!

Eek!

Water going through light fitting = really not good! This has just happened to a coworker who was instructed to phone the fire brigade for advice, they wanted to come round straight away as it constitutes a serious fire risk.

Hope it all gets sorted ASAP!!

I love that where I work, we've been having occassional leaks through a light fixture for the last 5+ years (it's under a platform that has plants on it, and sometimes the guy who waters them gets a bit overzealous) and all we say is "oh, it's okay! The light's not on, so no problems!" D:
