Water butt

Posted: 22/11/2012 at 23:05

ha haaaaa... I have two butts .. one connected to shed roof.. that fills relatively slowly but the other one is by our lean too which fills daily if raining...I got soo fed up emptying it that I now just leave it to overflow onto garden...I guess its different if its near the house due to possible dampness... if so then easiest thing is to move it..

I was overloaded during the summer with rain water & no need to water garden as already done.. I bet next year we will be saying theres not enough in the butts...

sometimes its easier to go on a site & order as you get idea what type of pots are good for boiling/roasting etc..there are descriptions... this year I had arran but poor crop & went to mush when boiled ...desiree were not much better... am going to go for a whites for next year...
