While on the subject of water, on the 14th October our water restrictions went from the highest Stage 4 back to the lowest Stage 1. Over night. Without warning.
While I am exceedingly excited about the possibilities this presents for our drought stricken garden, I am also rather bemused. Last week I couldn't water anything; this week I can water my lawn, and even wash my car. Has anything really changed, or is Grampians Water concerned because less water use means less revenue?
On a significantly less political note, here's a particularly delicious pic of my beloved taken yesterday at the river.
That is great to hear! I've felt so saddened by the brown land when I have visited parts of Victoria for the past few years:(
ReplyDeleteThat is kind of strange how the water restrictions changed so drastically overnight, maybe someone was asleep on the job for a few months? :)
oh and I think Jemimah takes after her daddy (in looks):)
Sorry couldn't help that one, I am notorious for this:)
Great news about your water, I hope it means that more rain is on the way for you!
ReplyDeleteDo you live near the Grampians then? We had a holiday there one year and tramped through the "Grand Canyon". I think I bought one of my teaspoons at a gift shop there. I could tell the girls a few stories around my teaspoons now couldn't I!
