Ye lot had a pump for water. Primitive and outmoded concept on a crutch, boy, you were living in the lap of luxury.
To get water up out of the river as a lad, I had to suck it up in my mouth, run five miles, spit the water out, come back and start all over again. But I was happy in those days. Too poor to know better.
