Water collection options

[bigpaul]

no problems here, any sediment drops to the bottom of the first water butt, we dont use the stuff in the bottom, the top half is clear, that sets syphoned off into other water butts which are clear of any sediment, I'd be quite happy to drink that now but would filter and boil it first, at the moment I am only using it for growing my food plants but post collapse this would change.
