If you ever get to go to London’s trendy nightclub “Fabric” you might notice something odd about the sinks in the toilets. The unusually shallow sinks only dispense a fine mist of warm water. Its not that they care about your hygiene or that they thought you would appreciate the tepid drizzle. It’s actually to prevent you from filling up your water bottles from the sink.

Clubbers on pills need water – without them they dance, sweat, de-hydrate and die… the poor things. Fortunately drinking plenty of water is an easy way of preventing any harm. Club managers know that clubbers need water so they make the ‘free’ water undrinkable and uncollectable, forcing clubbers to buy their tiny overpriced bottles from the bar. Clubbers often find it a surprise to learn how commercial their favourite pastime is.
