Buying Water & Broken Pipe

In October the tank at the top of the hill was almost empty as there had not been enough rain to pump from the shed tank, so buying water was the next option.  Unfortunately, not long after this I lost the lot due to a broken pipe.  After a bit of work and fiddling I mended the pipe and then managed to get the electric pump working to pump from the front dam (with a bit of help).  I have pumped a few times from the front dam now, plus one pump from the shed tank after about 12ml of rain.

  (I have included a picture of the path mown for the water guy and the mended pipe.  After the photo I filled the hole and secured the stand pipe to a star picket for support, so it wasn't broken again.)
