Leaks

Until last week, we'd had nearly a month of fine dry weather, cold and clear, a good winter.

Then we had rain and strong southerly winds, and our bedroom bay has decided to leak badly around the south-facing window. It's a few years since we had the windows serviced, and I guess that it's the changes made then that have resulted in these leaks, which have suddenly gotten much worse. When the wind is wrong, the rain is driven into the frame and trickles inside our wall, soaking the carpet and boards. I can't see where the leak originates, and can't seal it from the inside, so we'll have to endure the problem until spring makes outside access easier. It's a pain.
