At last!!!


Our car got a much needed wash today - AND WITH A HOSE!!!

Here in Sydney we have just had our water restrictions eased a little and we are now allowed to use a hose to wash our cars. Amazing how something like that could get us so excited LOL

Doing it with buckets is such a chore and definitely used more water.

You lucky thing! Washing your car with a hose. We're still not allowed to do that. I think those who make the restrictions are in cahoots with the car wash shops. They seem to be the only place you see people washing their cars these days! Thanks for visiting my blog. I have yet to have a good look at yours but I like what I see so far. Hope you have a great weekend with the cyber stitching thing!!!

Totally understand, every so often they give us a 1 day reprieve to use the hose. I love hosing out the wheelie bin!

Isn't it amazing how we take things for granted. I have really enjoyed my visit to your blog.

Lucky you!! Here in Victoria we are not allowed to wash our cars. I am glad that you have had some good rain. Send some to us in Victoria!! Nessie

I get pretty excited when I get to give my car a wash too.... Traveling 50km's a day on a dirt road doesn't help to keep it clean though... LOL!!!

Take Care

Yippee!! I know the feeling..the bucket wash was a total waste of time and I agree, used heaps more water. I wonder which rocket scientist thought of that GREAT idea?? Just opened my cyber stitching parcel today as I am back from holidays. The new book from hatched and patched is gorgeous! How's the new machine going? Jo x

There is something good about a clean car what to head over here and do mine.

One thing I notice up here is the amount of filthy cars from other states..I'm like dang they should wash thier car-then I remember they come from heavy water retriction states and probably are used to driving dirty cars..we don't have water estrictions up here and those that have lived here all thier lives can't imagine having been told how much water they can use and when-due too spending most of my life in other states - I for one am still concious of water usage,and I will admit I hate driving a dirty car,
