And there's electricity--that's a good thing.
AND there's hot water.

When they blow off the top of the water heater with the volcanic eruption of water they make a popping, whooshy noise!
And he-who-fitted-it is quite entertaining as he shoves a thumb over the eruption AND tries to figure out how to stop the water that's draining out of the pipe above....while using very colourful language AS the water cascades to the floor and drips from his face.

MAJOR bummer :(

Mel, Mel, Mel you have to make allowances for us poor males. Even though we are hampered by the male gene we do try our best.
How are you my friend.
nothing like waking up to coffee AND a flood! sounds like home..... :/
stay dry too..... xoxxx

Good way to clean the closet, though! :D
I take it coffee order was restored?
(will offer to send a cup if not?)
