Wales, the south-west, the Midlands and East Anglia will be raised to
official drought status,


Sorry to spoil that idea, but not All of Wales, Here in the south our
resevoirs are at normal level for this time of year and some above
normal, that is according to the Welsh news this morning.


They mentioned full reservoirs on the news this morning - but said
rivers are at low levels ... farmers who take water from bore holes
and rivers may be restricted in how much water they can take.

Well my water butts are full to overflowing at the moment. Hail in the
Swansea Valley this AM.

Bill
