Is there anything, other than the cost, to stop you using bottled water?
You guys who buy Waitrose own label Scottish bottled water are paying £1.20 odd a litre for the water from Carron Valley Reservoir which is in the hills above my house.

I may be wrong but I think there may be something in the small print that says you are not allowed to run a hose from a butt when there is a hose pipe ban could be due to them thinking that all water is theirs.
I'd be interested to know if that's true but I'd be pretty p***ed off if it is - I've paid to rig up a system to collect water that falls out of the sky and they want to try and stop me? Hmm...
Maybe I'll buy some of Tim's bottled car-wash water instead
