I laughed at the tap spraying it everywhere though!<br /><br />Hi Arija, we still have a roof today! Oddly enough, the pump switched itself on at night! We manage ok, a bowl of hot from the kettle and we washed everything up. It sounds as though you have awful computer problems too. They are so wonderful but such a pain at times! <br /><br />You are so right Bea. I can do without all this fun!! XXX<br /><br />Hi Jason. Roof still here this morning. Hoorah! We can boil rain water for washing so will avoid the lake wash I think! Bit cold for me.<br /><br />KathyB, they can be such a nuisance these 'trials'! We survive and with good grace most of the time! I did lots to the art project last night.<br /><br />No back up pump Rachel I'm afraid. It's a huge pump! Back on today, must have had a rest. lol.<br /><br />lol, soul, you are so funny. We're fine, Jim's here, pump is pumping overtime again!<br /><br />Heather, thank you for your kind thoughts.<br /><br />We can't wait for 'normal' Lisa!! That will be bliss.BThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16800917080090010655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8224955469243279371.post-58507959413763597292009-07-19T10:27:39.274+01:002009-07-19T10:27:39.274+01:00After all of these disasters you will appreciate t...After all of these disasters you will appreciate the boring normal routine.Lisa at Greenbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743973292900758183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8224955469243279371.post-12817114749152508582009-07-19T10:26:54.097+01:002009-07-19T10:26:54.097+01:00Hope things are being sorted out for you.

It is so infuriating to lose so much work when you've been at it for ages - poor Jim.

If you put all the buchets and bowls outside, you will catch the best drinking water on earth.<br />Gremlins in computers are a different matter, they can be so annoying and definitely need exorcising. I have an annoying one too,certain comments that are modified, just do not make the transition to the comments of the post and so often my automatic feed lets me down and I get a guilty consciene when I manually access a site and find I have not kept up.<br />Always look on the bright side, if you can't do the dishes, read a book what better excuse is there?Arijahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03720793296992474762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8224955469243279371.post-54007694528090048492009-07-19T02:05:19.648+01:002009-07-19T02:05:19.648+01:00I am almost afraid to check in with you tomorrow!!...I am almost afraid to check in with you tomorrow!!! Oh, what a headache to be without water. When our county water goes off and then does come back, it is full of red mud and usually sprays with great force out of the faucett spraying us and the room.
