  1. france has regulations concerning rainwater harvesting for domestic use.

    For drinking it is strictly forbidden with the law being clear that you cannot connect your domestic system to your rainwater system.

    Washing floors, watering plants, washing cars and all permitted.

    For washing machine use there are strict controls, pre-treatments required and not if you have any asbestos element to your roof.

    At home, most of our summer washing up water and baby baths go on watering the flowers on the balcony.

    When we next buy a house to renovate we will install a large underground collection system for the toilets and garden watering.

    Many people here have rainwater butts which are not sufficiently sealed and so make a breeding ground for mosquitos in the summer...misery.

    Ty

  4. The Highways Agency found over 200 dead crows on the M4 near Bridgend recently, and there was concern that they may have died from Avian Flu. A Pathologist examined the remains of all the crows, and, to everyone's relief, confirmed the problem was NOT Avian Flu. The cause of death appeared to be from vehicular impacts. However, during analysis it was noted that varying colors of paints appeared on the ...bird's beaks and claws. By analyzing these paint residues it was found that 98% of the crows had been killed by impact with lorry's, while only 2% were killed by cars.

    The Agency then hired an Ornithological Behaviorist to determine if there was a cause for the disproportionate percentages of truck kills versus car kills. The Ornithological Behaviorist quickly concluded that when crows eat road kill, they always have a look-out crow to warn of danger. They discovered that while all the lookout crows could shout "Cah", not a single one could shout "Lorry"
