Sorry. "Hey there may be water in your electrical sockets. Leave them for a day, if when you switch them on they make a funny noise or start sparking switch them back off and call and electrician." Think i'll be living in darkness for a bit then.... Yeah did I forget to mention the plumbers leaving words to me?

He was probably so happy, because he was thinking of the potential number of zeros that he could add to bill that he was going to give you. Anyway, just as well it's nothing wrong with your flat, though it might be worth getting the plug sockets and such investigated by an electrician, incase water was running down between the walls, and got into the back of them.

Just you know how lucky you are that water was not from the drain pipe (the smell made me about 95% sure which one). The people upstairs did some DIY. Il leave it up to you to make up the rest of the story. Took a month for the smell to go away. Il state again tho - 50 mins for all that is good :) That is good - last year we had that in the bathroom.
