RobMk6 Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Just a thought here folks, Can we use this thread to keep track of the hopepipe ban/useage restrictions and locations. Maybe start another thread to discuss it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidrick Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Or just use BBC.co.uk :-\ This doesn't bode well for you lot, does it? It seems to be very early in the year. They should invest in a national water system akin to that of the National Grid. When Scotland goes independant we can start selling it to you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shawdreamer Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 its easy to discern were there's a hosepipe ban in England, it follows a very systematic pattern which go's something like..... Saturday - torrential rainSunday - Flood warningsMonday - torrential rainTuesday - Flood alerts in majority of regionsWednesday - Widespread flooding / torrential record rain levelsThursday - Rain stops / Emergency flood operation starts / average Temperature rises to high of 3 degrees centigradeFriday - Water shortages / Hosepipe ban / Widespread reports of falling yearly rain levels due to global warming.

shawdreamer Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Depends on how keen your neighbours are to grass you up ha! The local councils incourage neighbours to grass on each other to save money on water supply costs one month........... then the next month their asking why neighbours cant trust each other more and create more neighbourhood watches so they can save money on rozzers. ..... make ya feckin minds up will ya ffs.

Matt86 Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I dont understand how the UK has water shortages.... Im pretty much living in the desert and you can still have sprinklers/housepipes on twice or 3 times a week and nobody hesistates to hose their car down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
