Previously on Buffy the Vampire Slayer ^W^W^W^W uk.rec.gardening, I
heard Martin Sykes say...
Why do you need to catch all the rain? I think what you really want to know
is how much water do you need to store to water your grass. If your
clubhouse catches more than that then so what? You don't need to store the
excess, just let it go.

He can always sell the excess to nearby gardeners at less than the cost
from the water board.


If the site has an excess. so will the local gardeners :-(( Supply and
demand sets a price. 'They' will be wanting to sell 'their' excess water
:-))

I have 5 x 40 gallon water butts along the back of my garage. When they
are full, no one wants the excess. When they are MT, so are the
neighbours :-(( but thanks or the input:-)
