My kitchen in Dulwich had a flat roof and some time in January 2002, it started to let in rainwater. The owners - a very well organised company in Finchley who'd bought the place from the previous landlord, who was idle - were brilliant about it, they had the roof recovered in about a week.

But the next time it rained heavily, water came pouring through the roof exactly the same as before. The new roof covering didn't even seem to have slowed it down. So I phoned them up and told them .. they couldn't believe it.

I can't remember if they offered to send someone round to have a look. But I was moving out of there in a couple of weeks' time anyway, so I put a washing up bowl under it, shrugged my shoulders and ignored it. As I recall I didn't get any more rain so it was the next tenant's problem.

Getting trustworthy and competent contractors is almost as much of a nightmare as water getting in where it shouldn't...

Good first episode..

1 episode left.  Brilliant.

Vai was apparently Fripp's first choice.  Carey is an absolute monster behind the kit.  I'm all over this like stink on a tramp if it comes over the water...

Loved her debut back in the day...'so good' indeed.

Last night - Johnny Marr gig.  My goodness, he was sensational.

All the best to your stepdad, mate.  It's always a concern as your parents get older.  My mum was 84 last week - she had a fall at home last month and spent a week in hospital.  No real damage luckily.  She forgot to press her alarm pendant..ive subsequently got her a fall wrist alarm.  I'm usually only 10 mins away and I get alerted.  She's a tough old bird.
