Much of Australia is currently in the grip of a major drought. Except the are I live, (South Gippsland in Victoria) is lush green so has not affected the local cockies (farmers) yet. Anyway, desperate times call for desperate measures...

How likely is this to lead to water saving???? Still I guess we must all make sacrifices for the greater good when our government requests. Any volunteers? :-) Regards, Ray. _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
