No water until tomorrow night ! ARGH

Well... theres going to be a lot of smelly people in my neighborhood tomorrow. We've been without water since this morning and it's not going to be fixed until AT LEAST tomorrow night. Every time they go to turn the water back on, it bursts somewhere else.

Quite pissed off here.. The same line breaks about 6 or 7 times a year and they refuse to replace it. Yes, it breaks in the SAME spot each time..

This is inexcusable.. lots of families and elderly people around here.

:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

1. I am really sorry.

I had a pipe burst in my building this winter, and for 2 days I had to go to a neighbors apartment to use the bathroom, brush teeth, shower.

It was a ROYAL pain in the ass.

3. Last time we had that happen...

About 30 of us in the area rented a motel room. After the manager saw one person after another using the shower, he called the police. Luckily I had just left the motel so I wasn't arrested! The motel didn't take kindly to our plan to take a couple of dozen showers for the price of one room.
