Interruption temporaire

The hang tag left on my door says that the main sewers on my street will be rehabilitated from 8 am until 9 pm today. Odours resulting from the resin used to line the sewer may be noticeable during the work. Special instructions include this: Do not use showers, bath tubs, sinks, dishwashers or laundry washers, and keep toilet flushing to a minimum. I guess there’s nothing left to do but draw the activity on the street.

    That is a really nice sketch. If I were the City, I would want to purchase it for a brochure or newsletter.

    This is delightful–odd word to use for people working on sewers but it is. Wish I would get a notice not to do laundry or wash dishes, etc. for just a few hours.
