300 litres later...
It says something about my state of mind now, in my current home, and how miserable I must, in hindsight, have been in the previous place, that I can discover my new house is situated on top of an underground river and still be happy.
The last two days have been spent with regular trips down to the cellar to remove 3-10 bucketloads of water at a time, depending on how the water table was at that instant. I even had to get up at 5am last night for an interim visit between the 2am bedtime run and the 8am getting-up run.
And I'm still pleased to be here.
(And now I've got a project - I feel like Ted and Ralph, trying to sort out the drainage in the lower field)
