![]() "Dave.C" wrote in message k... When it poured with rain they said "ah but that doesn't affect the long term problem". We get a few days hot sun and thety say "We've got a real problem here". I'm sceptical. Lol ...mmm, people still seem to have difficulty understanding the concept of underground aquifer deficit which only really recharges in winter. Believe me, if we get another 1976 then you'll know all about it as we are starting from a worse situation! Dave. Indeed Dave, it could be catastrophic in parts of the SE. There are more homes there now than in 1976, the pipes are still leaky, and demand has increased. You'd better pray for rain in that far flung part of Britain :-) Raining here at home this morning :-( Will (Haytor, Devon, 310m asl) -- |

Lol writes: Now you're doing it - "if we get another 1976" Surely you just said the water deficit can NOT be made up in the summer, so the 1976-ness or otherwise of the summer is irrelevant - London is short of water. It's not irrelevant, since evaporation and transpiration will be higher in hot weather. -- John Hall "The covers of this book are too far apart." Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914) |
