lirionI have hot water! This makes for a happy Lirion. *does the happy dance*
I mean, it's only been a week. Luckily I haven't been home for a chunk of that time, but still.
Having to remove the cupboard to get into it to get it lit because the flint/piza/striker no longer sparks makes it a major production should the pilot blow out. Such s in the stupidly strong winds last Wednesday night... And given it's coming up to Spring, I'm sure there will be more of the same. Advantage of parent as landlord is that we might be getting a new hot water service just to avoid the round of swearing we went through getting it pulled apart tonight. we had to remove a chunk of fake skirting board to get the cupboard out and nearly had to pull up some lino. This was not a well thought out plan for maintenance when it was implemented clearly.
However, excuse me while I go and enjoy a hot shower in my own home. If the osdding pilot hasn't gone out again as the cupboard has gone home to be sanded back for better ease of removal int eh case of a repeat performance.
Mmmn, shower.
