Day 84
No actual building today, though the assistant chippie did come round about 2 to ferret in our woodpile for something that belonged elsewhere...
The main thing is the water supply stopcocks. When we had the pipe-cut on the 1st, it turned out that the one in our driveway was broken, and the one in the street too. Some I phoned up to schedule a fix. A few days ago I phoned up to see what had happened, and they thought it was fixed on the 14th! But, it didn't look too fixed, and they thought that it *ought* to look fixed.
Today, 2 chaps turned up (while I was at work: M was in though). They thought it was fixed! They sort-of offered to dig up our drive and make absolutely sure, but settled for turning it on and off again and said, Yup, its fixed. So... there we are I suppose.
Also... a letter from the council (which turned out to be only a cc to us, mostly to Ian) about the tree roots. I turns out that they don't really want a covenant, just a letter to cover their backsides. So thats OK then!
