You can never have enough...

[Lilith7]

The cylinder saga continues. I started emptying the cupboard, and the one above it, where I store all my out of season stuff, and the precious pieces I rarely use. And discovered a disaster. The plumber said the leak was from the top of the tank, but it isn't. It is from the top of the pipe. So all the water that has been venting has been dripping down through all that stuff, including my two beautiful handstitched Amish quilts that I bought in America from the wonen who made them, and which are some of my most prized possessions. And the silk kimono my Mum made when I was carrying Rose, my wedding dress ditto (without the preggy belly, lol), and all the table linen she hand embroidered for herself and for me. All damp and water marked and stinking. And the woolies, the heavy dressing gowns, the big bedspreads - one of them is too far gone, I'll have to ditch that one.

My rage is wearing off a bit now, which is a good thing, because I have summoned the community manager, and we are going to have a conversation about compensation.

And the two washers and dryers will be working overtime today. Just as well those are Haumaru provided, so no added costs there. Just the work...

And of course it is pissing down outside. Well, it would be, lol...

Oh! And yes, there is mould. Not a lot, but its there.

Oh, what an absolute bugger - it would have to be the most prized things, wouldn't it!

Hope most can be saved/repaired, & if not then properly compensated.


Freezing again & raining as well - it must be cold, as Madame le cat came inside voluntarily & nicked Madame le Dog's chair by the simple method of joining her on it...lasted all of ten minutes till Madame le dog retired to bed.
