I am refreshed by 7 hours sleep last night and ready to re-engage in battle
I really appreciate some advice and info I got from Spugs via PM.
A thorough 'deep clean' and decontamination by a specialist firm is likely to quell the discomfort/disquiet I feel living here. They can also deal with the rainwater damage.
I await quotations from several such specialists.
Meanwhile I cannot perform my usual cleaning routine because of the risk of stirring up contaminated dust. I have two air cleaning gadgets operating in my lounge.
I have heard that the delay in getting me back in here on Monday was because they were struggling to get the air quality down to an acceptable level.
Yesterday I could not think beyond moving out, and websearched for alternative accommodation.
Today I am more optimistic that a 'deep clean' is the answer, and would be the least traumatic option.
