A friend with an apartment in the village (they like in the UK) contacted us yesterday to say they had a report of a 'leak'...
So I popped in today to sort it out...
Sure enough, the place was awash with water.... A pipe had separated on the roof.... The original plumber had used the wrong joint to connect a flexible pipe to the incoming mains... luckily it wasn't their water but a neighbours who will be faced with a mahoosive water bill as the meter was spinning off its bearings....

So I got Elvis the village plumber to come and fix it....
He fixed the first one and I asked him to also replace the one of my friend's apartment as it had the wrong joint too... he said, "is the water switched off?" and I replied, "yes, I promise"....
So he undid the connector and was deluged with 5 Bar of mains water in his face....
