[QUOTE=Mr.T;24157437]Story is: ... Now, we called 112 A.K.A 911 and the operator said that they cant do shit because we did not have anything of value in the basement.

I guess it's time to move out of your parents house
[QUOTE=Mr.T;24157437]Flood stuff...[/QUOTE] Hey, atleast you had nothing of value in yours. When my basement flooded, it destroyed all of our game systems, some spare computers, air conditioners, a treadmill, and clothes, and made my brother and sister's room full of mold and crap.
I went to a house with Sewage Water, god damn, everything is flooded with shit, really, the house apperas to be made out of shit
It's ironic how we have another thread about Sweden in GD, but telling how awesome this country is.

The other folks with shit-filled houses have a higher priority (and rightly so) as there is a potential public health concern. You will need to hire someone to do cleanup, or take care of it yourselves. Hopefully you'll get some reimbursement from insurance or the damn government, depending on how socialized the property and casualty side of things are.
The thread has been closed because this is a blog thread, and they are not suitable for the general discussion section. If the OP wanted to make a thread about flooding in Sweden he could post a news article from Aftonbladet or somewhere similar in In The News, or he could make a thread in general discussion about dealing with floods and discussing how well or badly they are dealt with in various parts of the world, especially Sweden.
