haha i was getting used to using the bucket, was getting good at it too. :) This hose thing takes longer to wash away the soapy water, but much more convenient and less water spots.

I can't believe our government is stupid enough to relax water restrictions now that we have some decent water in the dam. I mean it's not like it's full. they are morons. most peolpe have gotten used to the restrictions and work within the laws without any problems. so just leave it that way and let our dam fill even more. 60% in my eyes is no good. if it were at 85% I'd say sure go for it. but 60% is nothing to cheer about.

The thing is with the water restrictions just gone - why did the government force people to use buckets or go to a car wash?

1) The bucket argument does not hold true. Sydney uni did an experiment and a trigger hose used less water overall.

2) The carwash argument is utter crap. My brother-in-law owns a chain of carwashes in Sydney's west and he laughed all the way to the bank when these restrictions came in place. You see car washes DO NOT USE recycled water (well at least his don't). He said maybe 10% of them use recycled water as it costs more to setup and there is no legal requirement to do so, so it makes poor business sense. So how can anyone believe a carwash which uses hundreds of litres of water is better than washing your car on the front lawn?

State government stupidity makes me angry...

thats what the de-salination plant is for!! they should have built it many years ago! screw water restrictions, we live in one of the most developed western countries on earth and yet we struggle with something as trivial as water supply.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
