No.1 Husband Saves The Day!!

It looks like our water problems are over. JR went up to the well and poked around with a stick which dislodged large amount of vegetation that had grown onto the inlet pipe - Hey Presto - gushing water. Now all we have to do is wait for the sediment to settle and we can wash again! So mother in law can have a flushing loo next week and all is right with the world.
Now I can actually appreciate this lovely weather without worrying how I will water my veggies, I can stop using the facilities of every one I visit just to save a bucket of water to fill our cistern.
We learned a lesson though, never take your well for granted. Major overhaul is on the agenda when the water maanie comes.
