Right, we’re all pretty sick of paying the water companies increasing amounts of our hard-earned cash only to see millions of gallons of water wasted daily through leaks while their share-holders make money. That’s not to mention the 13 million Britons currently having to restrict their water usage and a large percentage of those facing further restrictions. So here’s where you can name and shame.
Next time you see gushing water pumping out of the road why not take a picture? Email it to me at info@hosepipeban.org.uk with some information about it (time, place, water company, anything else you want) and I’ll stick it on this blog. Let me know if you want your name included or not.
And what’s the point?
Well, it can’t hurt and might make you feel better! Also, blogs like this have a handy knack of getting much wider attention than you’d think. We’re already getting a great deal of traffic to this site and it’s only in its infancy. Anyway, we can all have a wry laugh over it at we watch our gardens choke to death.
