I still keep a letter from the water board telling me I would be prosecuted if I continued to use my hose pipe when there was a ban in about 1974 (maybe a few years out).
I would probably have got away with a verbal warning from the official who caught me washing my new Triumph GT6 if I hadn't turned the pipe on him.
As I was spending 4 or 5 days a week in lodgings around the country and not bathing or showering at home as often nor had any family at home I though it would be OK, obviously not in the eyes of the law.
