Hosepipe Ban
Any one else affected by this? i measured it out just now, and using a pressure washer uses less water than buckets.

Not where I am ....yet.
Tho I think I can cheat the system as I have a stream and well in my garden

Nope plenty of water back here mate 
Re: Hosepipe Ban
I am included within the ban.It's not hard letting my polo look dirty and not being able to clean it.
Im never going to give in to getting it washed by the Car wash.Am tempted to take a bucket and bits to the tesco jet wash though.

Re: Hosepipe Ban
Got it here. 
Didn't get time to do the Golf either so had 4 months of winter grime to get off by hand.
Not really found it much hard tbh, just go over the Polo a couple of times a week with a cloth and some water and keep on top of it. Is annoying though faffing round with buckets!
