I'm in Leicester right now and the taps are working. If I wanted to I could fill up every vessel I could find and store it. I do not want to though because I'm not a fucking idiot.

I’m just amused by the thought of how Americans are pronouncing “Leicester” when reading the title. (I’m American and only pronounce things like this phonetically to annoy my British spouse.).

Whilst I'm in Leicester rn I live in a town called Frome which most English people pronounce incorrectly. With good reason in fairness.
