Those people at Which? know what they're talking about when it comes to the goods and products we use everyday, so it was great to have Andrew Laughlin from Which? as our guest on the latest edition of Waterfall to share insights into water efficient appliances.

Magnificent views of New York City from the Top of the Rock. Can only think why have so many people left their lights on unnecessarily?

It's very dry and settled at the moment over the UK. Ironically the latest edition of Waterfall dives into the importance of wet winters to our water supplies. Mother nature hasn't got the memo.

Libellous!? Is this what the Glasgow based media have to do to discredit the league leaders? @aroundthefunnel.bsky.social

Lots of little reminders at the Hvar Amicor Resort on resource efficiency. Loved the water, energy and carbon comparisons with the neighbouring rooms. And thank goodness our consumption was below average, phew. #Croatia

Got my latest water bill. Below is my usage for five people. Works out as 82 litres per person per day. The UK government target for 2050 is 110 litres.
I don't make any sacrifices about water use, I water the plants from a water butt and nag the kids on shower lengths!

What a waste. This tap was running for a full 5 mins at Starbucks in Northfield, Birmingham, earlier today. I asked a member of staff to turn it off, but he ignored the request. Another staffer caught my eye and finally turned it off. Wasting money and carbon, and damaging the environment.

Welcome back Scottish Premier League football! Here's my dad and me Tynecastle this evening. We haven't been to a match together since 2017 and I'm glad that wasn't our last. And a Hearts win against Aberdeen! A fab night, Tynecastle was rocking.

Kick started my day with my first ever Irn Bru Espresso (Irn Bru, ice and double espresso). It was amazing. This was to jolt me into action before speaking to Sean Farrington on Wake Up To Money on @bbc5live.bsky.social

Was at the launch of the Drinking Water 2024 report for England produced by the Drinking Water Inspectorate (DWI). Compliance with standards was at 99.97% which is massively impressive. We have world class drinking water quality. The picture is Marcus Rink the DWI's Chief Inspector in action!

These plants at Battersea Power Station are either a work of drought resistant genius or a massive mistake! Any views from gardeners out there? #Drought #Gardening #Battersea

I was the only one amused when the song Bad Blood by Taylor Swift played while I donated this afternoon. I always enjoy giving blood - the team at New Street in Birmingham are great! #GiveBlood #NHS
