Water, water everywhere

Scottish Water have requested that the residents of Stornoway and surrounding villages use water wisely. We have had three weeks with no measurable amounts of precipitation, and the reservoir that supplies the area is running low. They are topping it up from another loch, a few miles to the north, but still: short showers, no baths, clean your car with a bucket not a hose etcetera.

  1. Yes it would be strange to have all that water around you but little to drink. Hope you get the needed rain soon. We've had plenty here so no worries, but not everyone is so blessed.
