Spare water storage......

Now I know this doesnt look very nice, but...after the torrential hail we had again yesterday, we managed to fill all 7 water butts and 13 of these that Rays friend managed to get us. Each one holds 10 gallons.......All I have to do is find out where I can hide them...........Lol

They look more like paper towels to me :) Any storage room under your house, Maureen? Grow a vine over them or place plants in front maybe. I know, I know...invite Dave over (Funky) to paint them to be camoflaged in your garden!!!

Now there's an idea Tasteyg.....Funnily enough we are off to Devon this weekend........

Well the water containers won't be getting filled in my part of Essex. 2.08 am it started raining and only rained for 20 minutes. Pathetic. Did you get more Milky?

Yes, a pretty poor show all in all. Let's hope there's more 2morrow!

Maureen- Did you kidnap Dave while you were in Devon over the weekend, lol?

No Tasteyg...but I shou;d have got his address....I would loved to have seen his garden with my own eyes All those lovely walt disney characters........Brilliant......maybe next year.......

As your hubby seem to like relaxing I suggest you put all the water containers on their side and lay him on top of them. problem solved.lol

Morgana...you are a star......the perfect answer........he has had a lonbg drive today and is snoring now.....and I dont think he would notice if I moved him.......................
