Tbh it's all irrelevant anyway as with all your butts and the amount of rainfall recently you've collectively probably got more water than the water companies anyway...lol

Tefal - that's another goodun! 
I still think the rain water in the butts is better than the hard water out of the tap - which ends up marking the car...?

@Sanj......irrelevant once the DI Vessel finally comes (w/c 25th June?). At least I've now got a 'reserve supply' as the weather will now go super dry so the ban'll be back...where's that Desert Smiley?
@Sp3ctre.......Oi! Give us our smilies back.....
