Utilities have issued a ban notice for South Cumbria from Friday morning. http://www.nwemail.co.uk/home/hose-p...errerPath=home jim, Northampton

Entering any postcode at all (even, say, a London one) into the UU homepage hosepipe ban search box leads to this map... http://www.unitedutilities.com/5226.htm Still only 6.6 mm (5" - Davis 7.0mm) here in Cheshire. March, April, May and June were all significantly drier than their 1970-2000 averages (and June was also nearly 2C warmer than average). Steve P Acton Bridge http://www.pardoe.net/meteo/weather.htm

Mine comes back as "unaffected" a NE Eden District one. B-) Our water comes from Burnhope now, it used to come from an adit up the hill about 1/2 a mile away. But yes the search is broken as I put in a Slough post code and it is affected... I'd report it to them but the web form wants a full address(*) and one of the required fields is "Road/street name:" our road doesn't have a name. I guess I could find its C number but life is too short... (*) Far too much information for a general report/enquiry, looks like they are employing second rate web "designers" to me. Ones that don't actually use web sites or properly test the stuff they have written. -- Cheers Dave. Nr Garrigill, Cumbria. 421m ASL.
