The sustainable water source is working

It's been SO nice to have our tank water finally in a state to be used on the garden. Since the bathtub was installed down in the lower garden with the irrigation hose feeding into it, it's been really satisfying to dip into it with the watering can to use to water the garden (which hasn't actually been THAT much since we had that huge amount of rain 2-3 weeks ago, but since then the days have been quite warm and windy and the soil has dried out). Today we have a light rain (perfect garden watering rain I think) again which has had the overflow on the tank once again dribbling. It's a huge tank (couple of 100 thousand litres I would think) so will be interesting to see how it gets us through summer for guilt free garden watering.
