A police officer tells a colleague about a lengthy special operation for the arrest of highway robbers that took place in parts of Southern Bulgaria.
"So those gangsters managed to get away at first, and made it to the mountain villages... hiding there... It was terrible... We had to chase them around for an entire week. And the worst part was there was nothing to drink - no beer, no wine, no rum, no cognac..."
"What about water??", his colleague asked.
"What do you mean - "water"? We didn't even think about showering in such a kind of tense situation!..."
