It was a joke on UK putting water pipes on the outside of their houses.

Well duh, they freeze and burst in winter so they obviously need to be outside for easier repair! Think of the mess they would make if they were inside the walls.

Absolutely, it’s not the UK that are crazy, it’s everybody else.

Hmm the only water pipes I’ve ever seen outside are for the garden hose 🤔
