Phew. Almost out of time today, so just time to squeeze a couple of good news stories in.
Our geyser (hot water cylinder) deposited a few hundred litres of hot water all over the front garden yesterday, after a pressure release valve… released. It didn’t come through the ceiling, which was good, but it couldn’t be (legally) repaired, because the geyser was a relatively old geyser.
Still, fair play to our insurers and to Everlight Plumbing, who sorted out the issue with the minimum of fuss and the maximum of efficiency. We now have a new geyser and also we have hot water again. Thank [deity].
And then the final appointment for Little Miss 6000 with the surgeon after her recent op. And a clean bill of health. She even managed her first singing lesson this afternoon, which went much better than we could have hoped. And that’s good, given that she has to perform in a concert a week today.
But now I’m off for dinner, taking my passport for the journey all the way beyond the Hospital Bend and into town. The food looks lovely, but it does also look like it’s being served at a restaurant… in town.
And one that isn’t Dias Tavern.
Scary times.
