That happened to me a few years ago. It flooded the kitchen to the point it got under the lino. After a week it stank. So dude came to replace the lino, which was there when we moved in and found asbestos floor tiles. Those had to come out at great expense. I took all the kitchen units out, floor was screeded, reassembled the kitchen, then new lino. Cost just short of £1800 that fuck up

On TEA material, some restoration work done...
As received. Date code is 1972. Tube in it is date code 1958 and is Heathkit branded. They must have bought a metric ton of the damn things.

Waiting for parts to arrive for the electrical refurb. Evicted a double electrolytic cap, selenium stinker and some shitty soldering so far.
