Hooray! Hosepipe ban ends in Anglian Water's kingdom tomorrow.....although to be fair, I'm more likely to use a hairdryer than a hosepipe at the moment!
So the ban lasted precisely 10 weeks.

Are y'oroight booy? -
We're still banned, but to be honest I haven't missed the hose except for washing the car - and ridiculously (is this a word?) I reckon I used more water doing it with buckets as so much water ended up on me or the floor....
I wonder just how full the aquifers are??If the river hasn't reached the top of your step, DON'T PANIC! -
still have the hosepipe ban here .... we're all geared up for dry weather and hosepipe ban, but it just keeps on raining ....Comment

I'm in a quandry as to whether buy one or not.....never had a posh one before.
Now I'm working, watering with cans is going to be tricky to find time for, then I think of saggy arms from not getting the exercise of carrying several huge watering cans about.the fates lead him who will;him who won't they drag.

Thames Valley have lifted the ban today - but I really don't need to water! I may have to jetwash the patio slabs though as they are dangerously slippery - unless I can persuade another grape to help me ( Where is Hotstuff when you need him?)
Whooops - now what are the dogs getting up to?Comment

Wettest drought & hosepipe ban here I have ever known (and I have known 1 or 2). Though I haven't really missed using it, and the wildlife pond has survived OK.The cats' valet.

Does this mean that hosepipe prices will rise in the previously banned areas?
