Good morning and welcome to the weekend posters.

Finally we got quite a big downpouring of rain, with accompanying thunder and lightening last night. We're due for quite a bit of rain in the next day or so.

One thing that has resulted from this is a load of moss blocking a downpipe, so I'm off to clear it.

That brings me to today's peeve;

Keeping on top of household maintainance.

I remember the days of calling an apartment manager.

But I like living in a house.

"It's always something."

But, you know what? I can handle it. I have a lot of how-to books.

My father's belief was that if something was done by a human then he could do it. That belief did not live on in me. If electricity or spiders are involved I call for help.

We have a maintenance staff. Luckily, one of them actually speaks English.
