Fingers crossed for me here then guys, I have a leak in my incoming water main supply, and yes - it's on my side of the water meter. Engineers appointed by the insurance company came out today and proved that the leak was "somewhere under the garage"  :(

So, they are coming back tomorrow to excavate the garage floor - wish me luck

Should have checked weather, but cycling is free. Often quickest way back!

The snow is really beginning to piss me off now. My road has pavements either side which are literally sheet ice. Anymore snow will slow work down. It's stupid. We've had fun in it, now it ought to bugger off.

Its been years since we did that at school, but pretty sure Captain Oates gave his life to hopefully save the others, unfortunately they died but what a brave man.

I think the forecasters have learnt some tricks from the beeb and tabloid media, and try to over sensationalise everything. Last week's snow was supposed to be appocolyptic...
