Hans the plumber told my husband today.

BUT he has changed it and now we have lots of lovely water flowing on demand once more. Hurrah! A jacuzzi may be called for later.

In other news I am almost completely deaf today due to a hideous sinus/ear infection which has taken up residence in my body. Sooooooooooo I made some nice minestroni type soup with onions, garlic, paprika, 2 dried red chilis, bayleaves, herbes de provence, a pinch of asafoetida, a teaspoon of dried lime powder, a glass of white wine, stock, olive oil, babyspuds, orange lentils, carrots, red cabbage, blackeyed peas, green beans, courgettes, bacon, shell pasta and tomato puree. All not necessarily in that order though. Obviously there was far too much for 3, so I supplemented it with a baked camembert and some french bread. ;).

We may need to go to a Forest pub this afternoon to enjoy the last of the sunshine once the post lunch apathy has worn off.

Have a sunny Sunday.
