But yes we're on a hose pipe ban, but there are exemptions ie blue badge holders, oap's etc. I just take mine to the local non native car wash, ?10 in nd out. Happy day's just leaves the detailing to me??
?10?? its only a fiver up our way

Seems a bit odd but the ban is on hose pipe use (not just car washing) so maybe something along the lines of being physically unable to lug heavy watering cans around the garden only a guess on my part but it kinda makes sense.

That kinda thing also p****s me off big time, even worse in this case with the apparent collusion of a warden
