Busted Pipe

 Seems we had a pipe freeze and bust, so we had quite a time yesterday afternoon. Suddenly water burst from the ceiling in the front room, in the old part of the house. Within minutes the room was flooding and water was pouring through the floor into the basement. I had no phone numbers, hubby was out of town and the landlord in in another country. I ran over to one of the neighbors and they helped get the water turned off 

and brought over a water vacuum and helped get the water sucked up and everything dried up. They also found the number of the contractor and called him.

He came over, along with his plumber, and they sorted out the problem, got it fixed and got the water back on. Next week, they'll come back with the heating guy and determine the cause.

Probably too cold! But whether the heating system is to be blamed or me just not having it warm enough, is the question.
