Thanks @Eve7 

 

That was actually yesterday and it took me all day today recovering - I am feeling better this evening and eventually I had the shower I couldn't take yesterday - sore shoulder and no hot water left

 

I really appreciate my hot water service - my family didn't have one until I was 14 I think - I remember the old gas heater in the bathroom and boiling water to wash the dishes in the kitchen - and my mother had a copper - I guess that's the way it was then

 

But the really good part is how the Ministry of Housing reacted to get the tap fixed and then to sort out the excess water - there were puddles all over the place

 

I thought the Ministry wouldn't come because of the lock-down but they did - so good words where they are required - they did well
