I'm just about out of rainwater. I had to get a water cooler bottle of well water for my plants in my yard.

We managed about ten minutes, and I was out in it, shouting my gratitude to the skies. 😁

I don't remember when we last saw rain, but its absence is causing us grief... Water levels are low on the canal. We're just below the summit of the K&A, on the west side. The summit pound isn't fed by any natural supplies, and any water in it has to be pumped up from lower levels by a pair of pumping stations. They obviously can't recycle all the water that goes downhill with lock use, so are struggling to maintain levels at the top. As we're just 2 locks down, there's no water coming in from above, and some being lost below is.. We're down about a foot today, and have had to slacken the ropes and push the boat out from the bank to stay afloat. Other boats on our stretch are listing heavily as they've been moored in close and left for a few days...

It did rain again, a fair bit but nowhere near as much as we need.

It lashed it down early this morning. It's much fresher now, and the rain water buckets are full!

Woke up to find it had rained a little this morning (bucket had 1/8" of water in it) and apart from that everything was bone dry. The leaves are dropping off everything in the garden and it's all brown apart from where I'm chucking the washing up water. Went to a carboot early on and the sky was black but only spat a few small drops.

Lashing down here! The same on and off yesterday. I have a nasty feeling that's what it's going to be like the rest of the summer.
