Water and fencing, those are the most time consuming jobs on a property. With the dry conditions we are experiencing at the moment we decided it was time to check on the houses's water supply. We're not on mains water and rely on rainfall, which wasn't the best last year. Both of us had started collecting water in a bucket in the shower, but really had no idea if we should be worried or not. Our big concrete tank has character and is hidden by gum trees. We staggered up with the ladder but in the end were pleasant surprised. The water levels were fine but we'll keep the buckets in the shower.
