found a bit of texture to photograph
missed the best of the crocus, crocii?
Ian bought another box of childhood items back from his Dads and gave me this
needs a bit of spit and polish!!
This is our brand new fitted hallway carpet hanging out to dry :-(
We had noticed a mark on the hallway ceiling but everything appeared to be OK. On Friday I realised that the ceiling paper had rumpled in our main room so phoned a friend and asked if he could check the connectors on our hot water tank. As he moved the lagging, he realised it was full of water and moving it revealed a crack in one of the joints. The water had been leaking and then drying out in the heat, unfortunately once the lagging was removed the leak became a geyser and the tank emptied into the hallway.
We now have no central heating and no hot water until we can get this fixed :-(
Gosh, hope you get that hole fixed.
ReplyDeleteWhat a neat treasure! That antique iron with it's little matching trivet is a nice find.
I love the photos of the frogs and the lichens. Sorry about the leak - hope it gets fixed soon.
ReplyDeleteO my goodness Sue, that IS a disaster!
ReplyDeleteThe nice thing is the frogeggs, so soon !!, we have still ice on the pond! At your place it is more Spring then here!
Oh, that's a disaster! I've had one like this a couple of years back. But why do they insist on installing hot water tanks upstairs? To make sure it is a complete disaster instead of a semi-disaster?
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures thanks for sharing - your pond is going to be very full of wriggly tadpoles soon. Before you clean the iron and trivet up, why not use it to do some rust dyeing! Hope you get the damage fixed up soon and that your new carpet isn't too badly damaged
ReplyDeleteoh noooooo! house repairs! After 23 years of renovations and updates...I am so sick of dealing with tradespeople... I hope you find somebody reliable and reasonable... and soon...is this friend "handy"? I hope so... poor you.... what a mess.
ReplyDeleteWonderful delights but oh dear! What a dreadful disaster! I do hope you can get it sorted out quickly. Sound like a big job though :((
ReplyDeleteOh no! If you need to borrow fan heaters or anything just give me a shout. Love the froggy photos.
ReplyDeletethanks for all your comment, will try rusting with the iron. The forecast typically is for colder weather so its on with the thermals.
ReplyDeleteWhat a nightmare. I hope everything is sorted out quickly.
ReplyDeleteI'm jealous you got frogs in your pond. I think my fish scare them away out of my pond.
Love and hugs Gina xxx
Sorry to hear about the water diaster but the photos are great.
ReplyDeleteYikes!!! I hope you are managing to stay warm. I will do my best to send you some desert sun and heat...
ReplyDeleteLove those frog photos...
Hope things are on the mend now, hot water tank wise.And I am still envious of your frogs.
ReplyDeleteWonderful pictures! I really love the look of spring...still looking for it where I come from!
