Damn...
Well now it has all gotten serious. We are no longer pissing about with a little bit of water restriction but have the full blown level 5
140 litres per day... How much do you use???
no Washing cars...4 minute showers, etc. etc.
water theft has gone up... More precious than petrol, currently at $1.20 per litre.
Cheaper than the UK, France, Germany, Scotland and other assorted European countries. We are still making a huge song and dance about it. If you don't like it then drive something bloody cheaper, I know I do. And it's more bloody fun, too.
I guess that we won't be cleaning the streets as in the large Western European cities. In Berlin they drive around with a huge water truck and wash the streets. In Paris I believe they just open the fire hydrants, flood the streets and hope it all washes all the crap down the drain, and believe me there's a lot of crap in Paris. Mick will back me up on that one.
So, the driest place on earth just got drier (I'm talking about Australia)
No half-hour shorers for you Mr Doyle. Unless you get one of those new water-saving-shower-head-thingy's. You know the type. You turn them on and have to move around the shower to get yourself all wet, because it lets out such a tiny stream of water. Guess that's where I have one over the fat people of teh world.
Ahhh, the sweet memory of a bath. I had one in Berlin. Used it on occasion too, except when it wasn't freezing and I didn"t mind only haldf a path of warm water. I still can't understand getting a hot water system that held half the volume of the bath??? explain that to me???
Maybe it was like a prototype for Australia. Making it so inconvienant to have a bath that you just didn't bother....Sweet memories...
by the way, work's good. Saving lives and all that...
