Как Вам такой каламбур, отражающий энергетический кризис на Украине:


                         Объявление

Процедуры отменяются в связи с тем, что в солярии кончилась солярка


                            ?

Можно еще сказать "калека" (это менее официально, но тоже не слишком эвфемистично).

You know, in this part of the World (I'm writing from Ukraine but for you it
is almost the same as Russia) they are not very concerned about euphemisms...

By the way, if you happen to know something about those websites (maybe even
for Ukraine), please let me know - there are some people here who might need
help.
