Water, water everywhere

I knew we'd had a fair bit of rain last night but the true extent of the torrential downpour was evident this morning when I checked the water butt. I know this might sound more than a little sad, but I was quite excited to see how much water it had collected overnight.

And I'm pleased to report that the 205 litre butt was full almost to the top - only about an inch below the rim - so now I'm going to have to work out how best to siphon off the excess water in the future, as by the look of the sky we're due a lot more of the wet stuff soon. Another butt perhaps?!
