But why didn't you just heat some water on the stove?

Because the paper plates tend to get soggy if you wash them in soap and hot water?

[gadjo_dilo]

But you could have washed the porcelain plates.....
Sorry...Just remembered the last years of communism when hot water was available just between 7-9 and 20-22. Imagine the race to be home in time for a decent shower.
But even these days you may have surprises. A terrible storm in the area where my cousin has a country house led to a power cut that was remediated in 3 days. No power means also no water. Cold water. So imagine 4 persons celebrating a birthday on candle lights ( that was the romantic part ), missing a football match that we were dieing to watch, collecting rain water to throw on the toilet, watching the fridge defrozing and all our food gone and going to a well to wash our faces and teeth. The best part was when we went on a trip to a posh resort in the neighbourhood fearing we may smell like skunks.
Not to mention that about 4 years ago at my house due to a terrible frost the water got frozen in the pipes and I haven't a drop of water ( cold or heat ) for about 20 days. Having baths and washing laundry at relatives or friends and carrying hundreds buckets of water from the neighbours. That was probably the moment when I started to think seriously about the wasting of natural resources.....

Is this the end of this thread?

[steveaki13]

I hope not because with whats going on in my life at the moment, I may well need it soon.

Have you ever felt scared at how a job is coming to an end?

[gadjo_dilo]

Yeah....I always threaten my boss that I shall kill him.

Will you decorate a tree for Christmas?

[schmenke]

Yeah....I always threaten my boss that I shall kill him. ...

Careful what you post online gadjo .


Yes, we always decorate a tree. The kids are responsible for the bottom 4ft .

Do you have plans to travel somewhere for the holidays, or staying home?

[anfield5]

No plans, but I have just been told/suggested to me from head office that I am using two weeks of my accumulated leave, so I have a 5 week break this year, so my plans now might change.

What can I do for 5 weeks with a horribly small budget?

[gadjo_dilo]

Watch TV and drink beer.
You may also keep me company on the forum while the others will be busy holidaying.

Are you the jealous type?

Are you the jealous type?

I will look forward to keeping you company in here as often as I can

[anfield5]

No I am not the jealous type. I have what I have etc and that is good enough for me.

Are you a competitive person?
