Cold and breezy here today making a welcome change from the last few weeks. Had to pump out the Patio again on Thursday because of heave rain over night.
A new septic tank to be put in on Wednesday. It was a bit breezy in the composting toilet this morning will be glad when its fixed. Removing the fence round the current tank, I cut myself on a rusty nail and then stabbed myself with a screwdriver. Both healing well now. I was told by the doctor last time I was injured in the garden (bitten by a squirrel) that I didn't need any more tetanus injections as I'd had a lifetimes worth.
Not weather connected: we decided to treat ourselves with the Christmas pudding on Thursday as well and I noticed it was slightly damp. Investigating showed there was a leak under the sink so had to empty the cupboard. Looks like it is to do with the outdoor tap (so might be because of the frosts we have had. I've isolated that but need to investigate some time.
The water had gone down a bit in the tank this afternoon so treated myself to a shower. If there is no rain overnight, I might allow the wife to have a bath in the morning. Might even be able to do a load of washing in the afternoon.
