More like... "Install a tank and it will bucket down!"It may seem like pretty mundane stuff but when you are on the business end of a 100-year drought any rain is a blessing. The 1000 litre tank has been up just 5 days and this morning the water was gushing out of the overflow pipe. We haven't had heavy drenching rain like this for many months.
God knows how many litres of precious water are just going down the drain though! We could have filled our tank many times over and we know that before long it will be dry again and we'll be praying for rain.
But maybe the drought is over. Lismore is being evacuated and all the northern rivers are at flood levels. They are getting drought-breaking rain west of the Great Divide. Not before time! We'll enjoy it while it lasts.
