Good luck hitting anything with a hosepipe in this weather.

Only the terminally stupid would be out using a hosepipe in this weather, which invariably means someone somewhere will be ;o)

Hosepipe you say? Strong winds you say?

LOL!

NOOOOOOOOO!!! Don't do it, obsessive watering of gardens can only lead to an unquenchable desire to relocate *dum**dum**dum* to the Home Counties *eek!!**gasp**faints from shock*. Where such activities appear to be most prevalent*.

*No one knows why. Possibly because it's really fucking boring in that part of the country ;o)

Hold on! I'll get you! I have a long ladder and am comically slipping on the water that's being sprayed around

That water? It's tap water being channeled down the hosepipe, right? ;o)

It's for the same reason there is more golf courses in Phoenix than anywhere else... Where there isn;t water - people like to show how stupid they are buy having things that need a lot of water.

Ah. Another thing Surrey has far too many of - private bloody golf courses. There's 3 of the things in an area of two miles where I used to live, and they're not the only ones either.
