“Congratulations”. We were congratulating an old lady who had successfully secured to enter an apartment built by the city council for those still staying at temporary housing.
As they were both elderly and her husband was sick, they were given priority in the ballot. “The apartment will only be ready in two years’ time. We do not know whether we will still be alive when the apartment is ready.” She joked and laughed. She is 78 years old and her husband 80. It is a sad joke.
