Default I am glad there's a drought.

Because I hate to think what the weather up here in Northland would be like if there wasn't. It's rained every single day this week, the reservoirs are bursting and, as I sit in my 11th floor eyrie in H**********d, all I can see are fish swimming past the windows.

If you guys in the south are so profligate with your water, come and take some of our rain. Please.

Makes ya laugh doesnt it. The north is drowing, yet our blessed government are talking about dragging ice bergs up the thames, shipping water in by tanker from other countries, and possibly the best idea yet, a de salutation plant which Red Ken has said no to. Why not just build a god dam water main network to shift the stuff around? Oh, thats right, thats to simple isnt it. Lets drag icebergs from the arctic.

What fish can you see Boc?

Watched the news this morning and it was reported that Thames Water lose 900 million litres a day in leakages.
900 MILLION. This sounds like an awful lot so I may have mis heard, However they are bleeding millions of litres daily!!!!!
