My son Calum found that his bed was soaked last Saturday when he came home from work. Our roof has developed a leak and the water had found its way in over Calum's bed. He wasn't best pleased as you can guess. It only got worse as the landlord, the local council, took most of this week to getting around to fixing it. When I say fixing it though that has yet to be seen as they have said they will need to come back and check it on Monday. They think it was the flashing around the chimney. It is to be wet tomorrow so I'll go up into the loft to have a look myself. Magz said she though she heard water dripping into the bucket that the second council worker put up there to catch the water. When we first discovered the leak I tried to place a container under it up there but it wouldn't sit up or even catch it all. In the end we had to catch the water by leaving a bucket on Calum's bed. That left the sofa for my son to sleep on for a couple of nights to his added annoyance. With the leak has come a nasty smell of damp. It hangs in the air plus I'm sure I came still smell on my clothes at work. It makes you feel a bit like your unwashed. Not a nice feeling. Hopefully I find that it has been fixed tomorrow. If it isn't I think it will be me that gets upset about it this time. Not to say I wasn't unhappy with the council when it took them so long to do something in the first place. Mind it is always the same when it comes to landlords isn't it.
