No More Cold Water

The water in the cold taps is now too hot. Crazy country this. The cold water tanks are on the roof so that when the temperatures heat up the water becomes too hot to use. So hot that when the cold tap is turned on the water is scalding. We have to turn off our hot water heaters and use the hot tap for cold water and the cold tap for hot. That means that for the duration of the summer, each time hot water has drained from the cold tap we are left with warm water. No more hot water for washing dishes, only warm showers (not that you really want a hot, hot shower in this weather) and no readily available cold water for cooking.
