We were having a leisurely dinner on Friday, drinking a glass of wine, when suddenly we noticed a smell... very bad. That's when we realised that the sewage tank was not properly sealed, so to speak. It has to be emptied at regular intervals (by pulling a lever). We had never really thought about what could happen if it was overfilled, but we realised that.

Sewage was spraying out through a leaky corner over, yes, our clothes. Anyway, we had intended to rip out the fixed wardrobe fittings and repaint. But now we started that job little faster than planned, so to speak.
Below is a before-Friday picture of the boiler room, and at the top you can see an after-Friday picture. This Friday the plumber is coming, and then we will install a new modern sewage tank that empties itself! The faux fur clothes are being dry cleaned ...

Breathe! Thank goodness you are young, vibrant and creative....and see the possibilities. And I guess it's "just break down and move on..." Sometimes it's hard!
Thoughts( giggle..) to you. (I mean positive ones..)

It's no fun when that happens.
You can always, as long as you live, console yourself with the fact that it could have been worse!
No need to bury yourself!
Goodbye

Annelie, haha didn't realise that was it....
Ditte, dont worry. We "break up and move on"
😉
BP, nixpix, no surströmming...
Yes, that's true! Of course, you use more water when you're at home, but sometimes we leave the dishwasher on and it could be full....
Lennart, absolutely true! And I am convinced that there are people who have it worse!

Oh no, the smell of dinner! Ugh...
you are lucky to find the fault quite quickly and that it is now being fixed.

You don't give up just yet! Otherwise, this could have been a real problem. A walk - in - closet was in any case, not wrong.

Agneta, it's a good thing we had time to eat and just sat and sipped wine...
😉
Deciree, sure it could have been worse...
No M, inside the boiler room we will have a larger storage room, with bags, shoes and so on (you can't stand up straight, if you happen to be taller than 1.65...). Outside will be a wardrobe.
