House Fix

We haven't even had our 'official' house warming yet and already our house is showing signs of compromise - suppose that's what you've got to be prepared for when you take over a house that's been around for close to 30 years. If not for our attention to detail one weekend while we were doing our weekly house cleaning, we probably would not have realised that there was water seeping into the walls, causing it to become all puffy and wrinkly.

We later found out that this was due to a faulty float in our water tank and a burst pipe. Thankfully it was nothing too major and that we had detected the problem early enough. Still, damage has been done and it looks like we've got some repainting ahead of us in the coming months ...
