While the housemates away Gemma will ................make disaster strike ! !
Got up this morning and went into the bathroom, was just finished washing my hands when I stepped back out of the shower tray and .......... My foot went through the CONCRETE floor. Seriously, it made me jump, I’m heavy, but, surely not that heavy ? ? ? What do you do ? Your housemate’s away for the week and you cause damage to the house, only 3 weeks into living there.
Luckily one of my friends had come to stay last night and was much more forward thinking. Kneeling down she realised that actually there is termite nest under my floor and they had eaten away all the ground underneath where I had been standing. There were hundreds of them. The whole concrete floor around the hole sounds hollow, not sure how far they have burrowed. Ellie found a plate and has covered the hole and gaffer taped it down. Let’s hope there are no escapee’s until I can ask in the office tomorrow for a solution.
I didn't know termites could eat concrete!
