Showers!

No, not rain showers, but the joys of a cold shower this morning, once again.


On doing a search of my blog for "header tank" I find that the last time the tank was topped up was 3 January.

Only 3 months ago.

Le chef suggested it might be due to a loosely fitting lid and a warm room.

Ah.

Not only is the lid loose (dropped it into the tank trying to re-fit it and had to fish it out - luckily I had filled the tank right to the top, so I could grab it), but there was a central stopper to the lid which I cannot find.

May be lurking at the bottom of the tank, so completely lost.

Anyway, to the process:

Took all the stuff off the floor.

Then took all the luggage off the rack over the top of the tank.

Then propped the rack on a cube of paper handkies.

Then filled the tank - it took 10 litres.

Then put everything back where it came from.

Oh boys, that was an effort.

The good news is that a parcel arrived from Lands End. It contained two lovely cashmere sweaters which are now parcelled up for return as they are hand wash only and my hands cannot cope with hand washing garments.

Knew I should not have ordered them as they were rather expensive, but now I shall be £216 better off!
