I can never the the crack showing right lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

We're on the mains supply here and it is now a French-owned company who obviously wish to settle their country's national debt by charging us big money for this natural resource! Another private company manages the sewerage system and even levies a charge for disposal of the rainwater that falls on our homes and the road outside! Total of water + sewerage = US$ 1400-1500 per year! The French company wrote to me ("Occupier") the other inviting me to telephone them at my expense to provide them with my name!!! They got a (free-of-charge) email in response, pointing out they knew my name and my bank account details! Public utilities used to be owned by us all as nationalised entities but privatisation serves not the public but the rich share-holders instead. I would not mind so much if you could drink the heavily chlorinated crap that comes out of the taps (faucets). We have to spend extra money on filters to make the stuff drinkable. I drink bottled spring water only, these days, as the mains water is so full of chemicals. I've recently had to start buying special blocks to put in the WC cisterns as the toilets stop working properly if limescale builds up too! We're now waiting for a Drought Order to be invoked as they reckon we've had the driest March for ages. The car can stay dirty in that case! Yeah, I'd dig in the mud willingly!
