The current topic for the Weekly Photo Challenge is Repurpose and I have dredged a couple of topics out of older posts to show for it — because they fit, and because I can!
A mineral bottle with a bit of tinkering feeds rainwater to our big portapool In our current ongoing drought conditions, rain has been the only source of water for the pool for nearly a year now, and I have even been able to feed a large swimming pool next door as well. Note the highly technical clamp to hold the hose in place: two holes drilled in the edging, and strong wire bent into a ‘U’.
The water is of quite satisfactory quality!
Another bit of repurposing consisted of taking broken roof tiles and using them (damaged side down) to build up garden beds. Updates of this scene will follow when I finish some concreting.
Finally, a picture taken today. It shows a purr-puss on the left, and a re-purr-puss on the right.

“The water is of quite satisfactory quality!” I wouldn’t put any of that in MY whiskey!

Most likely of better quality than that which comes from the taps — and, conceivably, from bottles of so-called spring water.

It must be the colour of the pool itself, that gives it that sea sick green look, which I find quite off putting.

Your water diversion effort is really well-conceived and obviously effective. I’m impressed. Purr-puss and Re-purr-puss are adorable!

The water collection works well, provided there is rain. No rain at all is the current problem!
They are, and know it!

Wish I could whisk some of our rain to you! What a soggy year here

We could certainly use lots and lots of sogginess.
