My water butt is empty too I'm still waiting for the big tank I paid for (6 months ago) to arrive, and there are no taps on our allotments. There is one communal tank in the middle of the site, once that is empty I'll be taking containers of water from home to water my tomatoes etc in the greenhouse.
However, when this happened last year & I was moaning about a lack of water, it started raining & didn't stop for about 3 months. So I'd just like to say, very loudly, I DON'T WANT IT TO RAIN!!!!
