Stan The ManThey are too short-term and too lazy to do anything about this. and too greedy to bother unless somone bribes them
SoniaCorrect Sonia. It is wrong to rely on rainfall. As there was little rain last Winter. Building de-salination plants has to be Mallorcas number one priority. To ensure a water supply ad infinitum. (Every Year)
... unfortunately it is the result of the government's wrong administration in admitting the massification of tourists to Majorca. There is not sufficient water for many people in Majorca !!
The water cuts I am being subjected to are totally erratic. Sometimes in the morning, then in the Afternoon, then both morning , Afternoon and Evening. Every time when the water supply is eventually restored. Large shooting air locks fire out of all the taps etc. I find myself trying to shower at all sorts of different times of the day and night. WHEN I HAVE A WATER SUPPLY !!!
