My wonderful partner walked into the kitchen, turned on the faucets to fill the sink for dishes, walked out of the kitchen and promptly forgot she'd turned on the faucets. I've just cleaned up the water-ballet in there.

Upside:
- the floor is clean.
- for the next two days she won't do that again.

Downside:
- it takes at least a week before everything's really dry again.
- not a clue when the water stops coming up from between the tiles.
- my blood pressure is way up.

She goes everywhere with her mobile or tablet in front of her, and more than half the time doesn't notice what's going on around her. As seen a moment ago, ref. water-ballet.

I have now forbidden her to go near the kitchen with any electronics in front of her for the next month. That'll last 2 days.
Edit: it didn't even last 2 hours. Just found her doing the dishes while reading a book on her tablet. Sigh. Learned nothing of me cleaning the kitchen after she messed up. Why didn't I let her clean the kitchen, then? Because then I still wouldn't have started dinner, as she wouldn't have been finished.

Jord, I don't know what to say except perhaps put a Faraday cage around the kitchen.

Just found part 2 of the drippings... one kitchen cabinet and a drawer chock full of water. Upside of cleaning this out is that we're now rid of a lot of extra stuff we weren't using anyway. My upstairs neighbor who collects scrap metal will be thrilled.

I'm a middle resident, I do have a downstairs neighbour. :)
But that said, these floors are pretty sturdy. As far as I understand, the concrete slab runs from the front to the back, one plate, so difficult to flood the downstairs through. It's possible through the appliances cupboard, but that's out in the hallway.

It isn't the first time my kitchen flooded. Last time around it was when we were filling the central heating radiators and the hose blew apart. Before I had managed to turn the radiator fill point closed, most of the water from the radiators was in the kitchen already. All floor under 2 centimeter of smelly foul water.

Oh just imagine coming into the kitchen after telling your better half to clean the floor and find he's poured a bucket of soapy water onto the tiled floor because 'that's how I learned to do it in the navy'

Well I'm seriously considering setting up camp here for a while.
I don't deal well with some stuff, so I'm quite put off main.
Yep, he got to me. Or the aftermath got to me.
Might be a gender thing.
Which means I'm so angry at that [censored] that I'm crying. What a stupid reaction.
You could argue that I shouldn't be put off by the likes of him, but hey, I have feelings too!

Geez....
I thought I was the only bad boy on Seti.
And even where I come from, I find him about the most annoying poster on the Seti boards.

Do I get like that? Oh crap.
You are far better than him, don't let his arrogance get you down.

Please remind me again when I get like him.

You're welcome to stay.

Toilets are over there, showers and washing cabinets beyond.
The camp store is that way, hope you love spam and Ovaltine as those are in stock in droves after someone mistook a comma for a decimal point...

I'm afraid the swimming pool is closed, until the floater someone left behind is caught. Tuesday is Bingo night, Friday is Fright night.
Private TV costs extra.

Okay, anything I missed?
If questions, there's someone around for 16 of the 24 hours, dial 009 on the phone for reception.

Have a great stay!
Here's the key for cabin number 7.

Oh, when you get lonely, there's a Jukebox in the Cafe with all kinds of tearjerkers in the assortment. Just warn when you go play them, I'll make sure I'll be looking for that floater then.

The camp store has a sale on tissues starting right this minute!
