Leak update: Rang council. Ahhh yes, the data updates are slow - even though the leak was fixed Wednesday lunchtime, alerts keep pinging. There is no longer a continuous water leak at my property! Phew! But wait! Helpful lady on council phone line sent a form, so we can claim back rates, because the leak was undetectable. The plumber's admin was quite happy to provide the letter along with the paid invoice, so I've uploaded everything, and eventually it will be assessed. Yay!
If I was the betting type, I'd put money on that most of my online friends will see the toot posted multiple times regarding "Douglas Adams's explanation of why Arthur Dent was a hero in the UK and not the US" by morning, and that they will nod and laugh. If I was the betting type.
