So much easier!!

Remember when we were vacuuming out water from our overflowing "soakaway" drain just outside the back door because the patio was flooded and the garden etc was an underwater marshland? It was a slow and tiring process as the bucket that the water was sucked into only took 10 litres at a time... we now have a new water pump to make things easier and it works brilliantly!!

Still no news from the insurance company after the assessor came on Sunday regarding our claim and whether we're covered... fingers still crossed.
