Quoting Trudy: Dutch news said just 20 minutes ago:
In all parts of the Turkish city Ankara there is no drinking-water available due to a crack in important waterworks. The expectation is that 4 million people will not have any water until at least tomorrow. The shortage is just at the same time that Turkey has one of the driest summers in history.Ankara suffers extra from this because the area it's in is a very dry one. The water stock in the capital was already limited in the past few weeks.
Ankara's mayor advises people to go on holiday to reduce the shortage. |
Ewww...I'm in California now and we have had quite a few water shortages, but not this bad. At least we have had drinking water....so far. It's very unpleasant indeed. We are told to store extra water for emergencies. Do you do that in Turkey? Of course, storing enough gets to be a problem. I've got quite a bit stored...but taking showers not be very much fun.
Good luck.

Well really they are not so different from English jokes  . Unfortunately when you are writing its hard to get the tone of your text sometimes - which is why smilies come in so handy
As in all aspects of life - a smile or a wink goes a long way
