They're talking about turning on our new desal here in Vic.

New desalinization plant? All that sunshine down under ought to be doing you some good. You going to water your lawn, now?
We redid the landscape in our front yard to drought tolerant plants with (literally) tons of wood chips around them. I run the water to the front yard for a small amount of time to keep the stuff growing. We are naturally thrifty, and when the water company required a 20% decrease in water usage, the only way we could do that was to stop watering the front yard. So, the grass died right off. We don't even water the back yard, so it's scrub grass or weeds, which we cut down.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Funny thing Fireball, when we built the house 15 years ago we were in stage 2 water restrictions (that drought lasted 7 years!).
We did the front (as you may remember from the horsey pics) with no lawn at all and minimum hand watering if needed).
a
Anyone using a watering system in that time needed a sign on their house saying tank water installed. (more so for the sticky nose neighbors to not dob you in! lol).

I have noted before that, while on a cruise from California to Korea, I got so bored I tried to learn how to use two ten-key calculators at the same time. Results were ... spotty.
