Congratulations on beating the weather!
Please pass the message on to all concerned - incredible to think we actually
had visitors.
Helen has access to the safe with the cottage keys.
See you all in February.

Subject: [rurallife] Snow and other matters!
I have been most impressed and full of admiration:
John Newman went in to Museum on Sunday to help open up for Bernard and
Maureen and they had 2 visitors. I understand Paula also opened the cafe -
well done!
Found John and Chantal shovelling snow/ice at entrance this morning, Monday.
Congratulations to all.
On another matter I am rather stuck! Greenwoods, the letting agency for
Old Kiln Cottage reported that tenant had found water dripping through kitchen
ceiling on Friday. I found a plumber (Simon Greenwood) who reports a slit
in hot water tank in cottage small bedroom.which is above kitchen. The slit
is causing a drip every two seconds. The most recent report from letting
agency (ten days ago) had mentioned condensation and damp problem in spare
bedroom - the slit in tank is obviously the cause and has been going on for
some time. The plumber has quoted £550 +VAT to replace the hot water tank.
The parts have not yet arrived (Monday a.m.). I have bought a dehumidifier
which can take away 10 litres of fluid at a time. But I can not
place it in cottage as I cannot get access to keys (in Chris's key safe).
Spoke to Tony Stent just now (Tony tenant of cottage). This dehumidifier is
rather more expensive than smaller ones - but as Tony Stent is away working
most of the week I thought the cheaper/smaller one which could only take
.3litres inadequate and the
one which could take 10 litres preferable. This could be useful to the
museum in the future.
Does anyone know how to access the safe so I can extract the cottage keys?
Tony Stent has asked me to monitor the dehumidifier if I can install before
his return at the weekend.
