Hello? Yes, I'm the mayor.
:10:28
How soon can he get here?
:10:30
Tomorrow? We'll be dead by then!
We need him now.

:10:34
We've got no bread.
Our crops are ruined. It's a catastrophe.

:10:40
Then I'll expect him at seven
at the public hall. Thank you.

:10:46
- The expert will be here tomorrow.
- What expert?

:10:50
The Rural Engineering expert
I've been asking for.

:11:12
I declare the meeting open.
:11:15
We're meeting to discuss
the problem of water.

:11:18
- It's not a problem: it's a disaster!
- Quite right.

:11:23
But thanks to my personal initiative
and my phone,

:11:27
the local authority
has sent us expert help.

:11:31
This is the expert.
:11:37
Gentlemen, I've studied your problem,
:11:40
and this is what I shall report
to the Chief Engineer.

:11:48
The Perdrix spring
which supplied your fountain

:11:51
is the main source of water
for this whole region.

:11:56
It runs between two layers of limestone.
