As we are now on a water meter I am carrying the bath water to a water butt, then using it on the garden plants. I am wondering if this is safe for them considering the water may contain bath salts, foam bath, bath oil etc. Is this harmful? And is there anything I can add to neutralise the water before use?
I also pump the water from my washing machine into a large bucket and pour that on the garden (I collect this straight from the pipe in the garden) - we have done this for the last couple of years and not had a problem, but I do not use biological washing liquid.
Talking of conserving water, I can't understand why a toilet hasn't been developed with a hand wash basin as part of the cistern lid. It could drain directly in to the cistern and be used to help flush the loo.
Oh! A quick google shows I'm too late to make my millions with the patent
