Last hot shower

Gas Disconnect Part 2 
3 Wales & West Utilities guys came knocking at the door late this morning.
Van parked in the middle of the road and my offer of a parking space declined.
One guy knelt down to the yellow supply pipe in the trench, snipped through it with a big pair of 'scissors', held his hand over the pipe to stop some of the gas escaping, the first bung and cap did not work so another was thrown from the back door of the van.  I was standing at the front door as the jet of gas was pointed vaguely in my direction. Did I want the riser pipe to the meter removing? - yes.            

Whole job took less than 5 mins.  van was holding up 2 cars in the street so off they went.

Phoned W&W Utilities - job is showing as 'complete' - cost £535

What happened to the essential disconnection at the main in the street, digging the trench, repairing the road and the traffic management?

Manager will phone me..............

Party Wall Protection

Started battening the party wall in preparation for the DPM polythene sheeting.
Will take the polythene behind the downpipes in a continuous horizontal sheet and allow flap overlap up/down by contractor when the roof and floor are removed.
