ORIGINAL: JulieorSarah Sorry guys, i'm near place that was on the highest water restrictions possible in Australia (Goulburn NSW) until recently for months. To read of people regularly spending an HOUR in a shower! Is such a contrast to what was recommended to reduce water consumption ... shower by wetting the body, lather up, rinse off. Shaving from the basin. Pubs were serving beer in plastic cups, - no washing glasses. No watering of anything outside, (lawns, gardens, paths, cars,). Toilets - if it's yellow let it mellow if it's brown flush it down (with water saved from the bath/shower/clothes washing)! Sorry to be a dampner on this - but water is a precious thing ... and it will be a harder to obtain - use it wisely. WE are lucky to have plenty of water here in the mountains but the folks around us have been cutting back...I can still have my long hot showers without too much worries..We have wells, a small lake and plenty of ponds and creeks on the Circle C.....
