Wakey wakey, eggs and bakey...

Monday, December 04, 2006

So after getting home at 1am on Sat night I get woken up at 4:50am buy the sound of a waterfall of water in the kitchen???
A opened my bedroom door and there was a fountain coming from my ceiling - it was beautiful.



There was a burst water pipe on the 20th floor and cause there is nobody staying there yet, nobody turned it off! So the water came through all the way from the 20th to me at the 10th (and all the floors between) and it eventually stopped on the 9th.
So I spent the next 3 hours emptying buckets of water into the sink and mopping up the mess.

When it finally slowed down I created the "towel supported bucket 2 bucket system". This patent pending invention gave me at least another 30 minutes of sleep between emptying.



It finally stopped at about 10am and now my apartment smells like a hamsters cage cause my wooden floor got very wet. When the maintenance crew came in to help the guy too the lid of the light out and all the water that had built up inside poured over him and he ended up sopping wet - it was hilarious! But the engineers and everyone were in the whole day and it looks like things will be back to normal soon.
