Off for Two Weeks Wild Life
Posted at July 15, 2005 20:49 (UTC) from London, UKI think most of you have been camping some day before. And you know then as well what that means: usually sleeping in a tent, either only cold food or food prepared on the little gas cooker. Another point is body care. If you have been on a camping place you might have been happy to have public showers. However, if you have been camping somewhere in nowhere then you didn't have a shower. Maybe you boiled some water on the gas cooker to have at least some hot water for a quick wash. And later on, once at home again, I think a shower or even a bath was one of the first things you did.
So now imagine, it is high summer, very hot outside. You have to wear shirt, tie and suit every work day. You are sweating already by just thinking of moving. You come home and the first thing you want to have is a shower or a bath.
I wish I could! Why? Our hot water boiler decided to let us know how it is to live in the wild for two weeks. What happened? This f***ing piece of f*** scrap metal decided to resign from its job without any notice period. And it will take two weeks until our recruitment agency British Gas can place us a new candidate to do the job. And the commission fee for placing a new candidate is something more than £3.500. What a bargain in such hard times to find the right candidate asap.
So I now better start boiling some water on my little gas cooker to have at least a quick wash before I go to my little tent with air co.
Welcome to London Wild Life!
