Went to take the camper out for a run today to stop it seizing up when not is use. Turned on the leisure battery and lots of water started squirting out of the water heater (luckily the sink is underneath). A joint in one of the pipes had gone due to the freezing weather (next year we’ll drain it down like we should have done this year).

Only got a chef’s blow torch for making creme brulee which didn’t have enough ooomph so down to B&Q to get a blowtorch and some solder and a short while later the pipe was fixed. When I turned the water on again though the pressure caused a leak in another joint which can’t be soldered so tomorrow it’s off to Maplin to get some rubber grommits and a small bolt.

What am I going to do in Lewis? No PC World, no B&Q, no Maplin. Should I change my mind?
