Woke around 0930...Aki got up and made tea...but heard sounds of water flow coming from beneath the kitchen sink. Sure enough, our pipework had sprung a leak once more. Managed to get a message to Vince, and he called in a couple of hours later, and staunched the flow temporarily. He promised to return on Friday with tools for digging up the concrete, so we can get a proper repair done. Lunched on tortilla and ham salad. Worked at the computer for most of the afternoon. Grey, damp day, so we didn't fancy a walk. Broke to cook dinner...made a chicken and mushroom pie, served up with boiled potatoes and vegetables...very tasty. Aki had a zoom meeting with the JCUK group, so I read some Javier Marias and watched a bit of Women's Football. Aki finished in time to catch The Ten, then bath and bed...
