Crazy how dry it is out there. I am just outside of the hosepipe ban area.

Living in Pembs, we have a hosepipe ban coming in to force on the 19th yet it's rained most of this week and last week...
Soldato
Yes a hosepipe ban in Wales is something else. I mean, that one's not even coming into force until 19th August!
Meanwhile, 'Southern Water stressed there was no risk to the overall water supply, but the ban was needed to protect the environment...'

Also it's abit weird, hosepipes big no no, but filling up watering can unlimited times, that's fine
Man of Honour
That's why I'm watering as much as I can now. And will refill the paddling pool before it's in effect.
Good to see you are taking it seriously then
nothing wrong with buying more water before a ban imho.Good to see you are taking it seriously then
edit: i filled up my waterbut a day before the ban, shock i used a hosepipe
Man of Honour
I am. I'll stop using the hose when the ban is in place. :middlefingeremoji:Good to see you are taking it seriously then
I'm on a water meter so I'm quite happy to pay for what I use.
I love how it's upset you though. I'll make sure I do it more often.

Going on a short break to Cotswolds and Gloucester next week. Going to be 30c. First time ever I will not pack any trousers for a break in the UK.

Wish the water boards would fix their leaks and councils would clean out their drains before impose hosepipe bans
Soldato
We have been ok with rainfall tbh but i am using my plumed in hose pipe to target water my banana plants ect ,no imminent ban here but south west water need to sort there **** out instead of discharging it into rivers and the ocean
