Bit of a contraversial subject but one that im sure will effect a large amount of people this coming summer!
Hose pipe bans are coming and apparantly, although no one has ever been prosecuted or fined for it before, the local constabularys are going to be cracking down on offenders by issuing £80 - £1000 on the spot fines for people caught using a hosepipe despite origin of the water!!
For example, My OH has a Carp fishing lake (privately owned) adjacent to her garden, they use a water pump and a hose to water the grass during the summer. If a local bacon was to see the hose pumping water onto the grass she/her family would be fined!
PANTS!
Most trades are exempt though, So I plan on staying behind on a friday afternoon (finish work at half 1 ) and giving my car a wash and wax before coming home
How is anyone else gonna beat it? Watering can? Innovative water jet?
