Everybody Loves Good Neighbours

Maybe we weren’t the only ones to discover a huge jump in water consumption and in a strange way it’s comforting to know that others are as worried about is as we are.

Overheard at my place:

Neighbour 1: Incoherent mumble

Neighbour 2: It’s supposed to be FOUR MINUTES. That’s it. END OF STORY!

Neighbour 1:  mumbles again

Neighbour 2: You’re banging on about EIGHT MINUTES BUT IT ISN’T EIGHT MINUTES. IT’S FOUR MINUTES! TURN THE TIMER OVER AND IT’S FOUR MINUTES!

Neighbour 1: more mumbling

Neighbour 2: YOU WENT IN THE SHOWER FIRST THIS MORNING AND 15 MINUTES LATER YOU COME OUT! FIFTEEN ****ING MINUTES

(pause)

THAT’S THREE AND A HALF ****ING SHOWERS RIGHT THERE!

————————

I love that pause at the end as she is calculating the number of showers he is taking.

I hope they settle this domestic dispute in a hurry and he uses that timer for the showers. The shame of having such water wasters IN OUR OWN NEIGHBOURHOOD.

*ahem*

SCANDALOUS.

I’m still in awe that it’s possible to take a shower in four minutes. I’m pretty sure it takes at least four minutes just to rinse the shampoo out of my hair, not to mention all the other stuff I have to do in there.

admit it - that conversation was you guys, wasn’t it? in the grand tradition of “i have this FRIEND who has a problem…”.

Hmmm, perhaps he only takes a shower every 3/4 days? That would justify a 15 minute shower, cuz it would take that long to wash off 4 days of buildup….gross…lol
