Water Shortage

When I came home from work on wednesday thankfully I showered straight away because when my roomate Tom came home 30 minutes later he had seen in the street a busted water main and we had no water! Within 3 hours we had emergency water supply trucks (you could take a bucket and fill it with water) in the street and so assumed we would be without water for some time. In the morning still no water and when I came home from work the water supply trucks where still in the street and so i assumed we still were without water but to my suprise we had water! Yeah! 1 day i guess was not so bad considering we had assumed it would be longer, I never thought about how much i used water until we had none!
PS meant to take a photo of the water trucks for the blog but forgot before they moved them away, sorry :)

  1. You never know what you have until it's taken away!!! Every year when we have cyclones I think about what we could loose... and how much better I should be prepared!

    You'll remember soon enough.... you'll start taking photos simply so you can blog them :) Oh, well, at least that's what I do!
