My tragicomic afternoon: I had to go out, but since this morning they have been digging up the road in front of my house for works (FTTH?), and at that moment a huge pile of dirt was blocking the street. Without telling anyone they'd block the road for hours. But I had to pass, so I had to do an absurd maneuver to get out from my home and, in any case, add a few extra kilometers to the route.
When I came back, I saw an apocalyptic scene: they had broken an important water pipe, so the road was full of water and, with it gushing out, it basically flooded and soaked my entire garden. I did manage to get back in.
Meanwhile, while I was in the garage, I noticed that a pigeon had left a souvenir on the car. I grabbed a piece of damp toilet paper and cleaned it. Then I went to throw it into the toilet and dropped the car key into the toilet (clean). I rushed and took the whole key apart. It was in the water for less than a second and, fortunately, it did not get into the electronic part. Or at least it still works.
Now I go to wash my hands and there is no water. I can hear them working in the street.
They did not notify anyone and cut off the water right at dinnertime.
I think it is better to have dinner and head straight to bed 🙂
