    Thanks to everyone who PMed FL with advice yesterday.

    After an initial quote of £3000 I rang around and found someone who decided a whole new water-heating system wasn't needed and would fix it for about £300 *phew*. If anyone wants the name of the plumbers who tried to rip me off PM me.

    I'm now awaiting a phone call to let me know when they can come and fix it - so I'm still without running water (and so is poor KatieR - sorry Love). Let's just hope it won't be long now.

    Special thanks to Sheepman for the large water-containers and 3gallons of tap water - you're a star.
    Also thanks to everyone at Jango for checking my cleanliness yesterday - I never thought I'd see the day UP was sniffing my armpits!

    Re: Calling all plumbers

    There once was a plumber named Lee
    Who was plumbing a girl by the sea
    Cried the girl "Stop your plumbing!
    There's somebody coming!"
    Said the plumber still plumbing, "Yes! Me!".
