Our hot water tank has sprung a leak. Unfortunately, the tank is located above the kitchen, so that on Friday, water was dripping past the kitchen light, and tripped the whole house. This week-end, we have been virtually without water, turning on the tap from the mains into the house for as long as it takes to fill a bucket, then turning it off. The tank is to be replaced, but a new one will have to be specially made, hopefully arriving next week. Meantime, the engineer is going to try to do a temporary repair to-morrow, to let us have, at least, cold water.
