Post by: Frenzy on June 13, 2012, 12:38:05 pm: Yay! Thames have lifted the hose pipe ban :pomppomp:

I would of course celebrate by giving the old girl a good wash but rain, rain and more rain isn't going to allow that... :scared:

I've just washed my bike instead though technically I don't think there was a ban on me using the hose to get the grit out of my chain. I'm having to resort to detailing my bike in order to make up for the lack of opportunity to detail the car :confused:
