what bone idle lot is that ? you honestly think that because someone chooses to use a car wash they are bone idle ,that is ridiculous .
If the drought gets worse then there may come a time when car washes are shut down and business's rationed as they where in '76

There are many people with extremely busy lives, trying to make a living. That doesn't allow much time to spend with their family if they waste their spare time washing their car.

You shouldn't judge people assuming that they all have the same lifestyle as you, giving time to spend washing their car.

10 minutes on a sunday morning when the family is still in bed isn't going to make the family unit go into melt down -extremely busy or just plain can't be bothered ?

Don't comment on something you know nothing about. And don't judge others lives by your own.

If you must know, at 8am last Sunday I was at work, towards the end of a 15 hour night shift.

The price of a car wash is so little it's not worth the time/effort to wash my car on my own
