If It's Not One Thing It's Another

Yesterday morning the electricity went off at the mains. I flipped back the switch and all was well.

There's been a leak under the bathroom floor for months. It shows up in the hall downstairs- where lines of staining have appeared and the paper is coming off the ceiling. This morning- for the first time- there was a drip

Also this morning the electricity failed again - at exactly the same time as yesterday. This time it wouldn't go back on until I'd taken out the circuit that has the downstairs lights on it.

Ailz is ringing a plumber and an electrician.
