No when I moved to where we are now our water bills shot up. We were using about 1000 litres per day, plus the waste 1:1, so 2000 litres per day. That was when I was really busy with the window cleaning.

That was on a water meter - domestic house.

I now operate from a trading address but because of the change in business direction I don't really draw water from the unit.

We argued with them that the water was being taken away from the dwelling and so could not have a drainage cost. They agreed but only on the 2000 litres per day.

Any domestic usage was charged with drainage.

So Derek would have to dump his waste away from home.  That could be a problem.

Water prices set to rise significantly in the next decade, so get grafting and retire early.  ;D

As of yesterday we have a hose pipe ban in force,
went to Haweswater dam today to see resevoir, as someone said the
village that was flooded when it was built had re-appeared, it hadnt,
but water level was very low.
The water supplies Manchester, and when low , water is pumped from lake ullswater.

It P*ssed down all day yesterday and today, typical  ::)

Clinton, the water from there goes to the mancs every day,
cumbria is one of the wettest counties, and we give it away,
i hope it goes to the red half of Manchester, as i p in it if they
beat Liverpool at football   ;)
