Drought.

Silent, I don't think it will be too long before the Gov will increase subsidies on tanks. I'd give it 2 years.

I don't think we qualify. Not on town water. Would be glad to hear I'm wrong though...

Water Levels Dropping

WELL STRIKE ME DOWN - WHAT A SURPRISE.


December 08, 2006 12:00am - MELBOURNE'S water storages have dropped by 1.6 per cent this week, leaving the city's reservoirs at 40.9 per cent capacity. Water reserves are 19 percentage points lower than they were a year ago, Melbourne Water said. No rain was recorded in the catchments this week while total water use was slightly higher than for the same time last year.

So 40.9% divided by 1.6% = 25 weeks - well at least I will know if the Aussies had beaten "The Poms" by then - so I can die happy of thirst.

My folks claimed the rebate for a tank in Canberra and a year later they recieved a bill for water catchment!!!!

Dad then sent them a bill for upkeep of said catchment area. It never made it to court but he does not get any bills for water catchment now.

Just keep this in mind.

Love your Dad's style - should be more of it.
