Water shortage

[stackpole]

What water shortage? We've got feckin' loads of it up here. Just 'cos all you greedy cockneys have wasted all yours.

No, it's because all you brummies are too busy searching for porn to water the garden, have baths or wash cars.

Eughhhh!

A lot of the water in Brum comes from... wait for it... Wales...

During the drought of 76 the Welsh moaned like hell claiming the English water companies were stealing their water before they were put in their place reminded by the fact the English water companies built the resovoirs that they got the water from. Wonder how long before they start complaining again.

It must have been hell looking at all that water and not being able to touch it

When I lived in Birmingham it always amused me to see people buying bottled water, when you could get Welsh mountain spring water out of the tap.

Acid is not commonly in pill form ...... not that I know much about these things ..... hmmmm, perhaps I'd better shut up now ......

Well, it was in the UK the last time I .... read about it somewhere.

Acid is usually sold as impregnated paper or microdots on an edible backing.
