the other parts of the year they call 'winter' cause its freezing
'british summer' cause its raining

No hosepipe ban in Scotland or a lot parts of England, i would put more down to badly run water companies than a shortage of water  :cool:

Explain your self? How does a water company badly manage water? Gives too much to people? People, domestic/commercial, use too much water. People use water as and when they 'need' it. The water companies are hardly, excuse the awful pun, throwing water down the drain.

People should be educated on how to use the worlds 'resources' wisely and not be wasteful. I hate all these people who leave taps running to clean their teeth, fill the basin all the way to the top for a shave, spend f**king hours in the shower, puts a washing machine on for 2 items of clothing/uses a dish washer for 4 plates...the list is endless. I may even have a pop at people watering their lawns ffs. I can understand plants/veg patches, to an extent. But watering your lawn? Do the world a favour and don't waste a precious resource which we will run out of eventually and don't waste it on making your front lawn looking spick and span.

I personally feel the world need to stop being so selfish, as greed is what will ruin the world sooner or later.

Rage over. :lipsrsealed:

Less than 1% of the UK rainfall is diverted to be collected and stored to be used for human purposes.

I disagree with this. You are correct guy and kerrse, perhaps the water companies could organize them selves better.

However, this doesn't stop people being dreadfully wasteful. I still take my rant to be a valid comment but have retracted that water companies couldn't be managed poorly.  :rolleyes:

the water companys around the south of england are slowly putting water meters, and finding leaks that have been happening for years :lipsrsealed:

thats the bad bit!

but the good bit, is that im Very busy replaceing them through peoples insurances  :tongue:

but it is all bull... if china can convert sea water in to drinking water,,,, why cant we?

i know some new "eco" houses use "grey" water which is bath water / shower water filterd in to a tank and is then used to flush the toilets!

also, if you make your toilet flush with less than 6L of water , you can potentually get alot more blockages = more expence!
