Stinky drains

There was an awful smell pervading the motorhome and the link corridor to the house.
On investigation, I discovered that one of the drains was blocked on the drive.

Well, this was ideal - not only are we living in sub-zero temeratures in a supersize kennel, but now we have a supersize pong to contend with.

Anyway, the call was made to a drain clearance Company and the drain was duly cleared. Unfortunately he could not manually rod the drain (too exposed to the public), so he had to use his power jet and the cost was therefore about 160 quid instead of 50. Still, worth it for his generator being switched on for 10 minutes.

This was all on Friday. Come saturday and the smell re-appeared, but it seems to have gone for good now. What's happening?

It's now monday morning - Rita's off to see Ben, Lisa and Jamie in Bury St Edmunds.
First though we've got to sort a few things with regards to properties. This includes the cleaning of Jackson Street, prior to putting it up for sale.
Selling Jacko will give us some money. Having some money means we can start this renovation for real.

That will be good.
