Morning peeps, and happy caturday, dogerday, or whatever cures yer bud. Snow on the deck this morning, so I'll be out there with my buckets gathering some. Rumour has it that we might have 20cm or so coming, so the irrigation supply will get topped up nicely. I work off one 45 gallon plastic barrel, and melt snow in the other. By the time #1 is empty, #2 is full and warmed up nicely. So far so good.
The downside is that 45 gallons is a lot of water if an autovalve decides to leak. Not the end of the world on a concrete floor, but would not be popular with the dearest...
