AS we were filling our bottles at the tank earlier we said to each other that you don't realise what you take for granted until it's not there.

I don't imagine the people who filled dustbins were planning on using it for drinking. At least I hope they weren't. I was thinking more in terms of loo flushing and hand washing at the very least. It would be passable for that. There's a notice on the tank not to use it for drinking or food preparation unless it's boiled. Just realised something. I think that notice was ONLY WRITTEN IN ENGLISH!

Thanks to those who offered water and Mez for the offer of the use of facilities. heehee. Keeping fingers crossed now that it stays on and I can get me hair wash tomorrow!
