I just can't win

Blimey after losing a windscreen and CRT monitor the other day, todays effort was a blocked drain and discovered after 5pm.

It was blocked down near to road but we are on a battleaxe block which mean there was about a 100 metres of water backed up in the pipe to the house. The plumber started to undo the screws of the plate and we had a water jet spurting out for nearly 5 minutes until the pressure dropped, you would swear it was a burst pipe.

Got the electric eel in and all is right it was an invasive root from a Privet bush and that will be gone tomorrow as well. Oh well another $250 goes missing out of the astro-goody fund.

Cheers
