We have rain....lots and lots and lots of lovely rain!!

In fact, we have more than enough...way more than i need...Does anyone want some :)

My water butt is full to overflowing again, so if we could have rain like this every couple of weeks, i'd be well impressed.

And, i think i've finally convinced my parents that, yes, we do need more water butts :lol:

We had a good spate of rain yesterday morning, too - enough to keep us going for a week or so. Well, not the pots, maybe... Save so much time (and water), not having to spend hours watering everything!

slightly harsh me thinks. :shock:

there is a slight problem with rented housing, in that you can go fitting water butts without permission, when your landlord does not live in the same town it is not that easy. Ah well must keep trying I guess.
