flat emotions

I love my flat. Absolutely love it. And now, when it's proven to be too small for all of us, we're thinking of getting a new place to live.

It's been a bit difficult to even begin to think I'll find a flat which will be as nice and homely as this one. After all, I've moved soooo many times, and this place is the first one in many years that really feels like home.

But on Saturday I was about to get ready to go to a christening - only to find out there was no hot water. After a bit of "what to do" I had a freezing cold shower and got going. I came home Saturday night only to find... Yes, you've guessed it... No hot water still.

Sunday I had to boil water to do the dishes as there was still only freezing cold water coming from the taps.

Today... Well today there has been a sprinkle of luke warm water. Just enough to fool me. I got undressed and jumped in to the shower, and there it was again. That freezing ice cold water.

Today is a good day to look for a new flat. I'm fed up with this palaver. Last winter this was an ongoing problem too, and the landlord promised it was fixed. But hey - winter is coming up and the water problems start again.

New flat it is. I can make the next one as cosy as I've made this one, right?
