Oh shut up you smug, damp northerner! :smt068:smt027 We'll buy your water but we're keeping our sunshine - you remember that yellow thing that occasional pokes through the sky (or clouds as we call them).;)

No, you've got water, but the above is far from true.

Well if 50 years ago the governement invested in a national grid system, like the other utilities then there wouldn't be a problem would there.


I was in élan valley (welsh reservoirs that supply the midlands) on Saturday on my bike and they were not lower than normal so not gonna panic just yet.

Ill start conserving more when Seven Trent water decide to do it too :rolleyes:

I plan to make my Philipno house staff work harder so they sweat more and I'll use their sweat to wash my bikes. I'll be alright.
