My daily consumption of Water
Mood:  lucky
Topic: change of view

I have done a quick calcuation of my latest 6 month water consumption.

At $340.00au. for the 6 months ending 30th June 2006, my cost of water

was much higher that my friend who has a block of land same size as mine, 

one half acre in whole area.  For 26 weeks for half a year, weekly usage 

costs $13.20cents. Leaving the daily water usage at less than $2.00 per day.

How many of us would buy a drink, either fruit juice, soft drink, water or

beer,  and not quibble at the cost of that one drink. Now at $2.00 per day,

I get my toilet flushed at least 4 flushes, hands washed, more than 4 as

I am digging in the soil, or cleaning house, soiling my hands in one way or

other.  Shower, or bath, at least once a day.  Washing clothes, three times

a week, or three loads in automatic washer, even on low water level load,

quiet a few litres of water.
