Nuclear Hide Out

Nuclear hideout Deep under the garage in the basement of our building they are constructing a nuclear, safe bunker, the shelter is for those with a car and safe tenure, whose duty is to buy canned food, water and warm blankets. Those who fully own their apartment will get the best corner and sit in the committee; those with a mortgage will be second in line, alas mere renters are not wanted they will have to find other accommodation. It goes without saying children and dogs cannot enter. The construction of the “dugout” has become urgent due to the war in Ukraine, refugees from that country have been hired to hasten the work. After a lengthy meeting among the haves, the decision was to let in some renters, cooks, cleaners and nurses. As a top lawyer said: “it is all very well to be deprived but not so much that we have to do our own laundry.”
