Attention Citizens: Detain The Hose!

In Yorkshire, the police are urging residents not to snitch on neighbors breaking the new hosepipe ban by calling 999. This ban, affecting over five million people, prohibits using hosepipes for tasks like watering gardens due to alarmingly low reservoir levels. Yorkshire Water is handling enforcement, aiming for voluntary compliance before imposing fines. With record low rainfall and reservoir levels, similar restrictions may soon spread across England. Prioritize emergencies, folks! Don’t drench the emergency lines while the land dries up!
