Tap - the new water brand

tap_bottle_labels_packysdn3h.jpgTap - is the new water brand. The good thing is the water is free and doesn't and you don't end with loads of plastic to dispose of. The bad thing is you need to stick the labels on the bottles yourself. I think this is a really good idea although you do need to but that initial bottle. Bottled water to me is ...

Ban Beater

Ban BeaterI got my Ban Beater this week. I was quite excited as it has taken quite a while to turn up. I think partly due to it's appearence on Gardeners World I imagine demand has probably been quite high. Anyway I was initially disappointed as I when I tried to set it up it didn't work. But yesterday I looked at the instructions, took ...

The Big Drippa

The Big DrippaJust got my two Big Drippas from Gone Gardening. They are on sale so I got the two and have just finished setting them up in the greenhouse so they can provide water to my tomatoes. I think they should provide water slightly more efficiently than me and the watering can, particularly with the hot weather and drought talk! I was just going ...

Water butts and compost bins

If you live in the Bournemouth area and want to get a water butt or compost bin buy them from here. They don't seem to be doing the smaller version of the water butt as described here but you can definitely save a bit of money as you get all the required bits for one price. There does seem to be a longer wait for the water butts ...

A Good Life

A Good Life Bought this book over the weekend. It’s pretty interesting. Apparently the average woman ingests 1kg of lipstick over the course of her life. This book covers virtually everything to do with leading a ‘good life’ – apart from perhaps religion – I don’t think it misses much there though! It does’nt say anything is righ or wrong just tries to give you ...

Water Two

Water Two – it’s a rubbish site but a handy gadget. I read here about using grey water to water your garden. I was intrigued about using bath water etc to water your garden. Then today I was looking on the Environment Agency website and came across Water Two which seems incredibly cheap, small and easy to use after some of the things I had ...

Rainharvesting Systems - water conservation, recycling and reuse

Rainharvesting Systems - water conservation, recycling and reuse - Having just ordered a waterbutt kit from Blackwall who seem to have some kind of deal with every council in the country for selling water butts and composters, I came across this site for rain harvesting products. It's one of those things that unless you are building a new house or have a bit of land I think it ...
