    They were kept low a few weeks ago for maintenance, not sure if that still applies

    Yorkshire Water advertising on Radio today for us to save water. It hasn’t stopped raining in months. But make the general public responsible for your inefficient, leaking sh:t ridden system.

    Here's one for thi R. Yorkshire water based on 300Ml per day. Leakage of treated water. Is the equivalent of 120 olympic sized swimming pools per day. 5 per hr. And they are not the worst.

    Don't worry the water companies will soon top it up with raw sewage. And once the north feeding the south water Pipeline opens it's going to get lower.
