Local water for local people!

[barge1914]

Just returned home to be greeted by this...where has all the water gone? Have those blighters in the Midlands been turning taps on and washing their cars again. The residents of Royston Vasey are up in arms...Local Water for Local People!!!

How are the Reservoirs, lakes and puddles faring round where you are??

Water is our most precious commodity, without it we would die in a week, yet we waste it daily, we even **** in drinking water ridiculous,I have a fish pond in my garden and during the recent heat wave, [ remember that ? ] I had to top it up with 10 gallons of rain water daily because of evaporation, so I think we are all doomed seriously doomed.

 

[Robmac]

Don't worry, we'll all get together and dump our grey waste to top it up.

Water

It may be emptied for maintenance, or to leave space to help prevent flooding.

No, it’s Ladybower Reservoir and it’s just dried up over the summer. Local water engineer says there’s plenty left, but it will take a lot of filling, especially as it will take a lot of rain just to re-saturate all the peat on the moors first. At the moment you can see much of what’s left of the old flooded Derwent Valley villages.
