Is there a drought and water restrictions? The kids next door are in the pool at the moment splashing water everywhere.

And I cant even use a trigger nozzle to wash my car, which uses less water than a bucket.

Meantime also the birds and wildlife are struggling to find water to drink since you cant fill the bird bath or fountain.

I really dont have any confidence in the way the restrictions are structured, when one can have the hose on for hours (days?) to fill a swimming pool or top it up due to evaporation or splashing, but I can't water the lawn where I was going to put the pool.

A swimming pool is hardly a necessity here in Vic. Obviously an election ploy same as the lack of mobile speed cameras at the moment.
