Journal: Unusual Day

Sunday morning and foggy. Don't think I will go for my morning walk, too damp. We went to Hamilton yesterday to pick up some new cushions from from Gillian via Tahlia in sage green to match the black leather suite.

Before we went I decided to open up the sewerage line. The previous evening I had noticed the toilet was slow in flushing and realised we had a partial blockage; an old recurring problem due to roots. Flushing with a hose pipe slipped down the sewer line cleared the blockage.

I will leave the sewer line accessible for a few days and observe the results. In the meantime I will prepare some poison to kill the roots off.

Two hours later after a thorough shower we left for Hamilton. We called in at the Polytech hostel and met Tahlia, then we all went down to the lake café for a light lunch.
