Hosepipe ban in London

There we were walking down Ladbrooke Grove Rd Notting Hill yesterday and there in front of our eyes was water gushing out of the pavement and in the centre of the road. It was running down the road like a river.. but did we see a water company van with assorted personnel trying to stem the loss of this scarce and valuable resource. Nahh, not at all.. but it looked fun as cars sped through the torrent trying to splash pedestrians walking nearby. I expect we will hear the crap soon from the Water Company about the necessity for increased water charges to cover the cost of the very successful pipework replacement programme etc etc.

You lot make me laugh, hosepipe ban ? You hypocrites must be joking !! You're having a big laugh at our expense. Whatever we say though, it's like water off a ducks back..and the pun was intended !!!
