Damn.
Out yesterday, came home last evening to an overflowing upstairs toilet, and a huge bolus of water above the drywall ceiling under it dripping, about to burst.
Turned off water and got buckets in place in time and it "just" dripped out, not catastrophically failed.
Could have been a lot worse. Inches away from a whole shelf of boardgames.
Got emergency plumber out last night. Now waiting for folks to cut drywall today, fix pipes, and so forth.
Bah! But could have been much worse.
