This weekend was hard at work with the tanks again, we started out putting the tanks together and standing them all up.

The next task was to replace the terracotta pipes which are full of mud with some nice new plastic ones. Taking out the pipes we found 2 things; 1 they are really heavy and 2 I had missed some of the pipes when exploring. It turns out our pipes converge from both sides of the house and exit the property via 1 storm drain. This is fantastic news as we can collect rain from the whole roof and feed it into the tanks but there is a little challenge as the drains on the front of the house are a bit blocked. Here I am exploring the other section of pipe while Callum works on the stuff we knew about.
