Hose pipe ban over!

Post by MikeyH » Thu Sep 28, 2023 3:38 pm

Yeeha, our hose pipe ban is at last over, guess what I'll be doing this weekend. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Now, Sterling grey Z4 2.2 with cup holders, stubby aerial and sport seats. Roadsters ‘cause they’re great with the roof down.
Ford Anglia, Red Sprite, a few MG midgets, MGB Roadster and yellow Ford Capri, all gone many years now.

I'm going to give my little z4 a nice bath, got to be better than watering cans. :thumbsup: But yes, I might water the garden just because I can :rofl: :evil: :thumbsup: Have you still got a ban?

can't imagine theres much need to water the garden, given how wet July and August were.

Nope ours has been lifted too. Been over a year since we could use a hose pipe. I have been going out in the rain to wash the cars. Much to the amusement of the neighbours.

I was 11, all I remember the summer was never ending and peeling every day from sunburn :( . Remember the hosepipe bans but we just escaped queueing for water in the street by a few days and it all ended with fantastic thunder storms.
