Lilly : I am really worried about the shortage of water they keep telling us about.
Ronnie : Lilly, I’m wading ankle-deep in the stuff right now.
Lilly : Oh, you are so brave !!

It seems the reason for the water shortage has 'leaked' out

Out of service, of course. Who does need a fire hydrant over a pool?

And here I thought you were having a bit of a heat wave in the UK. Or perhaps you've just sprung a leak.
Clever and cool as always!

haha.Reminds me,our government treats sewage water and turns them into drinking water.They say its perfectly clean but somehow there is just a psychological barrier there.LOL:)

This amazingly natural looking image is great as a photo in its own right. Clever dialogue, too.

Your images always make me chuckle and shake my head at the technical marvels--this one is no exception. Thanks!

This is a good one... though wouldn't want that water thingy (can't think of what they are called - lol) out of service :)
Sorry it has been a while since getting back...work is keeping me busy...

Excellent work! A great poster ad campaign for local city management. I'm confused too of our drought conditions, water restrictions, warnings of fines, but the City Hall a mile down the road has plush green lawn on sprawling grounds and sprinklers running full blast.
I love the colorful hydrant, first time ever I have seen one with a sign like that.
Great message. Watch out for the snakes Ronnie!

@Barbara: : (from Ronnie) Thanks, Barbara . . did you say s-s-s-snakes? I'm gone !

Just sit down by the new pond. Relax your feet. … Well … no … snakes.

Well, that's actually a real trouble here, in Israel :)
Funny (ironic?) photo, nicely done :)

What...the cars are driving on the wrong side of the street! Must be a Python somewhere.

I just wondering whether your sense of humour is British or American... but as very often your picture is beyond being technically perfect, just a story by itself with just a lot of humour

@Laurent: (from Lilly) We combine our efforts when it comes to humor!! So its a bit of both!
jeff (aka dogilicious) from Millerstown, PA, United States
Good one. I don't think Laurent gets it!

Watch out for the holes buried under all that water ... over here they hide them in the water too ... very dangerous! :) Very awkward if they're talking about drought and then you see so much water spilled.
Great collage again, although you can't even see it's two pictures ... perfect!

LOL! No wonder why it's out of service, all the water ran out!

An interesting composition here. It's like a contradiction in terms.

A pump might be needed here rather than a fire hydrant :)
Creative montage with lot's of humor as usual.

Something about the notification is pretty disturbing.... then again, I hope that no boats park within ten feet or they might be ticketed.

hmmmm... getting it back into the hydrant looks like it's going to be a real challenge!

i like the idea as usual, but what stands to me is the textures on the fire hydrant, thow a water pump would be nice or a boat.
