So mr gas man was out doing the install and took away a little header tank we had in the attic, doing nothing at all I found out. This meant a new join had to be made on the mains water pipe in the attic and it decided to leak water the other night. I was awoken at 4.30 for some weird reason with a drip drip drip sound and walked out into the landing and squelsh! so on with dressing gown, out I went to the shed to get a wrench and vice gips and up to the attic i went to attempt to tighten the leaky joint. I could not stop it but I did reduce the drip drip to a drip...............drip and mr gas man came out that morning and fixed it properly. No damage done but yesterday I was knackered in work and I explained what had happened to Downsdad, rest assured their shall be no up dressing gown shots placed on this blog!

Please rush me large, glossy colour copies of you stumbling around the attic in your nightie, spanner in hand (!) as you manfully wrestle with a leek or courgette or whatever it was. I cannot WAIT! : ) Yes I am excited and over eighteen!

Happy days. Ryan - trust me the thought did enter my mind after building a conservatory with Paulas dad before helping him gut and fit a kitchen etc, I could have saved thousands, difference being I would still be digging out the trench and may have it finished by December.
