Chop , chop up and at it :-D

Allan

Allan Report 30 May 2018 22:22

No, but thanks for the offer, Kathryn :-D :-D

More rain expected over the next few days, but as winter officially starts tomorrow I can't really complain.

Time to get a few more logs chopped :-D :-D

You can have my water if you want Allan, it's piddling it down here :-(

Allan

Allan Report 29 May 2018 23:16

The water, yes. Restrictions and bans have been in place for a number of years now and even if you have your own bore you still have to comply.

Many new houses are being built with systems that recycle the 'grey water' for garden use ie only waste from toilets goes into the sewer.

As usual, people in Perth use the majority of fresh water on their gardens, but the rest of the State's population carries the can :-|

Ohh hark at you all posh now....

Are you serious about the water wow!

Allan

Allan Report 29 May 2018 23:01

Oh, Caroline, the delicious irony of your first sentence...sprinkler bans come into force tomorrow :-D :-D :-D

We are already on restricted watering days depending on your house number. That is why I dug up the back lawn some time ago and put gravel down in the front garden.

I don't do wine by the crate, although I do have about three dozen bottles; I buy by the five litre cask....very upmarket ;-) :-D :-D :-D

Caroline

On the plus side no hosepipe ban for a few days at least Allan. :-)


By supply of wine how many crates??

Allan

Allan Report 29 May 2018 22:23

The front is still cold :-|

Half our monthly average of rain fell in one day (last Friday). A BBQ in a local rural setting had to be cancelled and more heavy rain expected this coming weekend :-0

Fortunately I have my supply of wine :-D :-D

It's all men's fault not wanting to ask directions :-D

I'm always the one to have to ask....over here he sends me as it looks like I'm on holiday with my accent, over there I just go and ask as I'm a woman and I'm not afraid to ask. :-)
