Shouldn’t affect the North East with all the water in Kielder

Beat wash the car and put the sprinkler on then

 

[Wilfy]

Isn’t this by the company who lost 98.5m litres in leaks a day last year?

 

[Lumber]

How do they enforce these bans?

 

[Stubbs ftm]

Be fine up here, was raining yesterday and a bit this morning

 

[EDGE]

Good. Water is precious.

 

[Nobby]

How do they enforce these bans?

Drones?

I don't think hosepipes should be banned. They've done nothing wrong!

Perhaps not, but they are rather irrigating.

Has hit the south east p, from August 12th. My water butts are nearly dry so my veg patch is going to suffer

It’s a shame we didn’t live on an island which is obviously completely surrounded by water.

Walked around the local reservoir earlier and whilst it’s lower than normal still plenty in it.
No rain mind.

A good start would be to repair the broken pipe network in favour of paying out the dividends to shareholders.

Nationalisation would be best for the water network in general to be honest, given that it is a regulated regional monopoly business anyway- obviously not going to happen though

Rained a crazy amount in the NE Last two weeks on and off. My grass looks f***ing unreal. Won’t be an issue up here.

We really are in the shit if the NE gets a hosepipe ban.

We had torrential rain two days last week

Unless I have a squad of plod on my doorstep 24hrs a day, then f***ing good luck with that. My veggies are getting their soaking every night.
Fuck em.

 

[Qwerty]

If people choose to live in dry over populated areas it's gonna happen
