Yep, excellent idea.. wonder why nobody ever thought of that one?

:roll: all civilisations need water, food and shelter as a starting point.
It’s not rocket science.

They obviously used to have water and food and shelter… in their own villages. The water supply may have dried out or become contaminated, but, the village is still their home, and so they don’t want to leave it. At some point the water source will return nearer to their villages and their lives will go on as normal.

The next time we have a drought in this country, and we have to walk to a stand pipe to get our allowances of water, and say the stand pipe just happens to be 3 miles away – why don’t we all move to where the stand pipe is? And if people are already living there… why don’t we all just camp in their front gardens!

:idea: Let’s them eat standpipes.

They could hire a minibus between em. There’s bound to be some good deals online.

The best thing would be to hitch a lift. It wouldn’t cost anything and the money they saved could be spent on some orange squash and ice cubes.
That’s assuning they’ve got a fridge which of course they must have. I mean, who hasn’t got a fridge??
