Spring is here. No more freezing weather, so I can refill the water tank and plumbing, and start the spring cleaning.

All winter, I've been filling a 5-litre water dispenser for drinking water. I've been using the marina's shower and sink to keep me and my dishes clean. Now I'll do that on board again.

The water tank has a stainless steel flange and cap that unscrews. A standard garden hose (or hose pipe) fills the tank.

To fill the boat's water tank at Canal & River Trust water points I use a garden hose (a.k.a. hosepipe) and a Waterways key.

It's now so cold, an unrolled hose laying across the towpath will stay stiffly coiled. Despite my verbal warnings, someone got snagged.

There's little traffic, but when it comes, it's couples from each direction, plus a cyclist, all 5 crossing the hose at the same moment.

Stopped at a Canal & River Trust service station to fill the freshwater tank, today. It took a long time. The water pressure was OK, so after filling the tank, I unrolled the entire hose to look for a kink, and – sure enough – there was one.

Dentro de las cosas notables que se pueden ver en #Uruguay está el rechazo del Tribunal de lo Contencioso Administrativo (la justicia superior en temas de administración pública) a admitir una publicación científica de la principal Universidad del país #udelar como prueba, porque (atención) *está en inglés*.
Igual o menos notable es el rechazo a la comparecencia de dos de los autores del mismo por *no ser imparciales*.
Esto responde a una solicitud del equipo legal del Ministerio de #Ambiente y OSE (Administración de servicios públicos de #aguapotable entre otras cosas).

Comparto la nota a la población de la Sociedad de Limnología del Uruguay:

Among the notable things that can be seen in Uruguay is the refusal of the Administrative Litigation Court (the highest court in matters of public administration) to admit a #scientific publication as evidence because (attention) *it is in English*.
Equally or less notable is the rejection of the appearance of two of its authors for *not being impartial*.
This responds to a request from the legal team of the Ministry of #Environment and #ose (Administration of public services for #potable #water among other things).

Here I share the open letter from the Uruguayan Society for Limnology: (in Spanish)
