"One Friday I got a call from a tenant complaining that her hot water was not working. I taught maths and physics when I was a schoolteacher and fancied myself a bit when it came to fixing things. But I couldn't work out what was wrong; the pilot light was on and there were no electrical faults. Then I discovered the problem. It wasn't the hot water – there was no water at all. She hadn't paid her water rates and those were the days when they could still cut you off for non-payment. Somehow she thought they had only cut off the cold water."
