Plumbing Problems Fixed?


Today- ok yesterday- my bathroom was torn to shreds. It has been decided by the forces that the only logical solution to my plumbing problems is to rip a huge hole in the wall, put the pipe from the toilet OUTSIDE the building, down the side and into the ground and covered it with chunks of building blocks. So, I spend Monday with the very nice plumbers as they drilled, and drilled and drilled. They then dug a large hole and put the bright orange pipe in and then left the toilet very precariously perched on the tile not hooked up to the tank saying they'd come back today. Unfortunately, due to a communication problem (i.e. no one calling me) I waited around all day today and no one came. At about 3 I finally was able to reach the plumber, who had left his phone at home, who said that some will come tomorrow to hook the toilet up, and put in some flooring. Creativity gets to flourish when there are no building/zoning laws.
