Default OT Saving water in a downpour

So you've essentially got a huge sealed plastic bag under the
patio/decking.
A 3m*3m*0.5m tank = 4500l.

Ideally you'd probably like to size this so that it fills completely
with whatever spare water you've got in the wetter months, for use in
the drier.


Just put a large tank down there, they come in sections, and cover with
decking.


Thanks for all the ideas. If only I could get a digger into my rear
garden!


What about the front?
