Been Away Too Long

Thames Water are digging up our road to install new pipes = no internet as they have destroyed the phone lines in our street. Coupled with a brand new super efficient and deadly firewall at work has meant that not only have I not been on the internet, but totally unable to visit forums or get involved with anything.

So apologies to everyone if you have been expecting replies and whatnot.

It was all up and running at home this morning, and my wife informs me that I have nearly 200 unopened emails.

Bang goes my weekend.

Drought

People of the London region are aware we are in drought conditions. No baths, no water hoses and massive recommendations that we all have showers. This is despite bottled water drinking has become the de-facto way of drinking water now, reducing water demand.

Plus Thames Water (the private company water responsible) have been running full page adverts claiming how much water they are saving on a daily basis.

So I take GREAT offence when I heard a radio advert today telling me to not only have a shower (and save money on a bath) but to make it a 2 minute shower and not a 5 minute one.

As Catherine Tate would say "What a fucking cheek!"
