Tue 6 January 2004 - Water bill
The most exciting item - no, the only item - in the mail yesterday was a water bill. Whoopee, the good people at South East Water want $36.95 for the quarter. Given that we are deep into water restrictions, I did have a look at the little graph showing water consumption. 300 litres a day, apparently, consistent with the previous quarter. Seems like a lot, though I suppose when it comes down to it, a litre isn’t that much really.
Looking back over some previous bills (because I’ll do anything to avoid the actual tidying up and money-related paperwork I said I’d be doing today) it seems to have been fairly steady since March 2001. Previous to that, for reasons unknown to me, my water usage was up around the 380 litres a day mark.
Egads, is this how exciting life is at the moment, pondering the water bills? Okay, okay, I’ll get back to my tidying up and money-related paperwork I suppose…
