A minister calls for a hosepipe ban in Britain (a country surrounded by water)
I suggest you all water the lawn tomorrow.

A hosepipe ban and we're a country surrounded by water.
And water companies in the UK lose 2.5BILLION litres of water everyday through pipes leakage. And 'we' can't water our small gardens. |

Yes the Private Water Companies
can not afford to Fix the Leaks., Gusto But they can Borrow money and fix them. The New PM said to be Liz Truss Needs to say they must Fix them from Day One of her term. Last edited by arista; 07-08-2022 at 07:36 AM. |

new leaks are found and repaired every day, but the whole water system is completely broken in many places and there is no easy fix. So the government wont do squat about it

The facts are, we pay for the water we use so you hose pipe rebels are lining the pockets of the water companies.

don't need to water our plants here now thankfully
deep in the ground they still have quite some water reserve for their roots as well so watering your plants everyday is like spoiling children rotten, if you don't water them, they need to learn to find water deeper below themselves otherwise they'll never grow longer roots meanwhile our next door neighbours sit in a pool every day and every day wasting water refreshing that |

btw using hosepipe to water the plants is not necessarily bad, but it more depends on what time of the day
its best to do that when there is no longer lots of sunshine so closer to the evening, lesser water waste and it actually going into the ground and to the plants, rather than in sunshine where most water vaporizes before it reaches the ground we've always done it like that, closer towards the evening and looking at our rainradar app Buienradar if something is coming, if rain is coming then we don't use hosepipe obviously and as for showering, my shower time is between 5 and 10 minutes, sorry not sorry, but in lesser than 5 minutes i cannot shower and i hate to be stinking like sweat before i go to sleep |

Yes of course in Main Streets they must fix it. And pay for bottled water. We are not talking about them These other Big Leaks on old Victorian Pipes that the Well Off Private Water Companies are fully aware is Outright refusing to Fix. They have let them Leak Water forever? Of Course they can Borrow Cash and get every leak fixed And The New Leader Liz Truss can instruct them to Fix these Old Leake's by taking a Cash Loan Last edited by arista; 07-08-2022 at 03:29 PM. |
