While the Greek Navy's inflatable trireme was taking on water just off "Riverbend", the water inside the house had been cut off by the plumber who was stripping the old bathroom of all its vanity (and shower and bath-tub).
This may become a rather unwashed Christmas unless the suppliers can deliver the new fittings in the next few days, including a large and bubbly SPA (so named to help schoolkids remember the chronological sequence of the three great Greek philosophers Socrates, Plato and Aristotle).The yellow cast-iron bath-tub will be taken behind the horseshed so I can take outdoor "baths" in the nuddy. Next time you drive into the property, blow your horn several times to give me a chance to cover up certain vital parts before the sight of them upsets your vital signs.
