I was not amused by this as I had already had to wait in a queue of thirty people in the post office. Now that most post offices have been closed down and there are only a few in the centre of the towns, they have become so incredibly busy that you really do not want to go there unless you absolutely have to.

We need rain. With the hot weather over the past week we really have emptied the butts fast, and especially so as the plants need more water at this time of the year as it’s their growing season. I have fitted up the rainwater harvesting system to collect water from the back of the house.

This fitting allows the water from the back part of the house to flow directly into a butt at the back of the garden, thirty metres away from the downpipe. I’ve had the fitting for years but haven’t got round to using it. I told my brother in law of the this way of harvesting water some years ago, and he uses the same thing successfully to fill up his garden pond. So I hope ours works well.
