    Hello.

    We are about to have a hosepipe ban in my area (I live very close to a reservoir & can see why!) I was just wondering about childrens paddling pools? Are we allowed them, I read somewhere that it’s ok to use a hose in a paddling pool, but wanted to check it out before I did so.

    Many thanks.

    I believe that the problem we have in North West England regarding water supplies could be resolved by allowing more competition into the market. Useless, sorry, United Utilities are not the most efficient organization I have come across. The authorities need to allow other companies to enter local markets because, as we know, nothing aids efficiency more than competition for customers.

    i sell bedding plants within my business (upto around 200 at a time). can i keep using my hose pipe to water them because using a watering can is very time consuming with the rest of a shop to keep running?

    I live in Barningham, Suffolk and my neighbour uses her hose every morning and evening soaking her grass and plants! Surely this cannot be right????? We haven’t had rain in our area for weeks so i cannot see how she can get away with using it.
