Hot water returns

Friday
A day earlier than expected, the hot water factory has turned on its supply so the whole district in which the Dorka centre is located has hot water again. So after four days of shock inducing cold showers, the team can now enjoy a nice warm shower. But with only two showers between the 14 of us, we need to push everyone through quickly. Luckily the bathrooms do not have mirrors so the time needed in the bathrooms for hair gelling/waxing/styling does not cause any more queues.
The weather continues to be showery which restricts the work that we can do but everyone has been productive. We filled our second skip with waste and have continued to remove the top layer of paint and plaster from some internal walls in preparations for replastering. We are impressing the locals with our enthusiastic singing while at work.
The traditional Czech roast pork, cabbage and dumplings seemed to go down well at lunch time.
The early starts and hard work is beginning to show now. Someone (who will remain nameless) tried to make tea using orange juice instead of milk.
