The weather is dry, my two rainwater tanks are empty. I do a monthly fire drill, checking my pump and other equipment, starting it up and spraying a bit of water on the garden in the process. This month I'll have to top up the tank with town water to carry out the test. September is the driest month here, but rainfall is below average this year, and climate change is making me cautious about what's to come. I'm looking forward to having my third tank installed.Image shows a fire drill from last summer.
