There I was in the shower, lovely hot water just standing letting the stream warm my aching back then click, freezing cold water ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!washed off in cold water arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!. So, phoned the plumber, he came and to say he suffered from BO. is an understatement equivelent to underestimating the presencce of a leg of Pork at a Barmitvah. He quoted €600 so said ok when?? he said tomorrow morning, I said ok see you at 9 am, 9am came and went so did 3pm, I phoned got the old "this customer has not set up their voicemail", I thought f*** it will look and see if I can do it. Took off the cover and thought mmmmmmm ok will have a go, off to the plumb center got the same shower and the fittings, total of €210, went home found the thingy that turns the water off, took it out put the new one in, wired it, connected the water supply, read the instructions, (yes guys those books that come with electrical equipment are for info on installation, not included for target practice.. pmsl) followed the instructions and turned the water and power back on and hey presto, it worked, it worked perfectly, I was so proud and I saved nearly €400, yipppeeeeeeee, it took me about 2 hours, someone who knew what they were doing would take quarted that time, nice litttle earner. Then the plumber phoned, "will be over in an hour" I told him I put it in, well feck me he went crazy, " I got the all the parts to do that for you now what will I do with this stuff, well I was going to suggest he use it to deal with his BO. problem but I resisted. I told him he was a day and a half late and he never answered his phone nor contacted me to say he would be late, he was not happy, well tough titties. Anyway I am so proud of myself, will attempt more of my own maintenance in future. I know that all will not go as easily as the shower, well thats my crowing over now to have a shower.
