Very apt!<br /><br />Second, over a year ago I had a similar experience to your plumbing one (haven't most of us? That's why it's so funny -- we can all relate!) and posted about it. It involved a toilet wax ring leaking. That led to other plumbing leaks, unrelated appliance and electronic failures, automobile problems, and spawned the whole "C" (shhh... "conspiracy"...) series of posts. My point is, watch out! The rest of your possessions may now begin to take on near-sadistic tendencies and fail one after the other!<br /><br />JohnDuke_of_Earlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08358279187766938462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11907160.post-35769619939584556432006-11-13T23:14:00.000+10:002006-11-13T23:14:00.000+10:00Brilliant Bog Blogging Pop.

Not.<br /><br />You do tell a story in a most amusing way. It was all the more amusing becuase I could put myself in the midst of the action.<br /><br />It reminded me of times when I used to work on my MG Midget. You know, minor tune ups the graduated into rebuild the carburettors, replace the brakes, install a new top? At any rate, we had a first class auto hobby shop on post with all of the proper tools and technical assistance. <br /><br />My wife would ask how long it would take. Oh, about an hour. She knew I would be gone for most, if not all, of the day. On occasion she would have to come get me and take me back the next day to comlete the job.<br /><br />I am really thankful that things under the hood of that little red Del Sol are much too complicated for me to even consider working on them.<br /><br />But, those were the days.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing. Btw, you keep a very neat bathroom.<br /><br />ROTFLMAOJack K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10619303846748379807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11907160.post-74742593978249532272006-11-13T16:23:00.000+10:002006-11-13T16:23:00.000+10:00Peter, I need my taps fixing!
