Just back from Wales and hope to get mine tomorrow.  Car is minging (that's dirty, not it's design!) after running around on roads with grass growing in the middle.  Tother half managed to get a large tractor to do a 'stoppie' trying to avoid her.  I don't think those big farm tyres have much grip... :drive:

Carmarthen seems to be 'X6 Central'......haven't seen one for ages then there were 4 (1 Black, 2 White and a Red) in 2 miles - worse than London Buses!  Only one driver returned my friendly wave......the others were pretending I wasn't there really.. >:( :P :))

Got mine today....thanks for the 'assist' Raj... :ok:

Now I know it's early days, but I just have to ask.....and being an injineer it's in my DNA.. :-[

What do you do to change the gubbins inside?  I haven't tried unscrewing the lid in case I break something and there must be some arrangement of pipework etc inside, and I can't RTFM as there ain't one.. :)

Try ringing Doug at DAQUA and see if he'll be nice.....I think he's doing well out of us.  Details higher up the thread....Raj supplied.

What size vessel?

Any idea how long they last and does the water come out quicker than it does out of the long black pole thingies, which seems a dribble at best!
