Woke up feeling lazy, stayed in beds as long as our bladders would allow us, then borrowed some milk and set about making chai coffees, and our own version of scurly..and very yummy it was too!
Feeling fortified we headed out the local markt.. that is not on on Mondays. Not a worry, quick shop in super mart for basics for dinner, of course buying cheese...
Back to site and final build stage of the East wing bed, this involved sawing, sanding, fitting, fixing.. Whilst still in middle of ‘flood’ chaos.
Mid bed fitting we decide to investigate the ‘flood’ further.. There is STILL a mystery leak, ‘how can this be?!’ we cry. Make a decision to remove HUGE water tank and thus the flood reappears in epic style..wood is unscrwed, carpet shifted, hoses cut, water tank removed, all with minimal swearing and in super quick time!
The final dregs of water poured out of the now hated water heater..10 big bowls later and the drips have slowed, in fact we have downgraded to a small bowl, victory is ours!
So while the floor dries, and dry well it must as its wood and we don’t want to fall through the bloody thing due to rot! We put on laundry, finished the bed, build a fire in the burner of the canteen to dry our laundry, gave Mr ‘Er yes I can fix Ziz’ a bottle of wine.. with a pink bow on it (he was thrilled!), removed loads of stuff from the vehicle.. and then put it all back again.. very reminisant of living in our American van (check out: ‘2 girls 1 van nuf stuff’ on our youtube channel)
Tired but feeling like we have final got to the bottom of what would have continued to be huge problem, and with beds ready to be fallen into we begin to make dinner.. the carpets are still up, no seating exists, stuff is shoved here there and everywhere, but a bottle of wine and a huge pasta, pesto, veg and CHEESE dinner is planned and so we are happy!
