Today the sewerage from the house started backing up out of an inspection port. I tried using a plunger to clear it, but could not. Then followed several attempts to move whatever it is, using a garden hose (turned on) from the "Bio" system (mini sewerage system) end, and then a piece of Yellow-tongue )plastic strap) from both ends. Nothing worked, so tomorrow, I will have to call a plumber.

Our house-sitters came over to see the place and check the place out (2nd time). We also introduced them to our neighbours, who will help out if necessary. The house sitters are happy to live here for 5 months, and feed our cat! It is good to know that someone will be looking after the place.

Now it is getting dark, and after digging a short trench by hand, I'm ready for a drink.
