Drought in the south-east of England reaching up to the Midlands, reservoirs seriously depleted, aquifers running low, rivers drying up, wildlife dying, hosepipe bans, cracked dried mud where water should be flowing; not a good start to the Easter holidays (title link). And millions of thirsty foreigners expected to descend on London for the Summer Olympiad. Too late to cancel it. McDonald's would probably sue. It has the burger concession in the Olympic Stadium. Very Blitish. Will we have water left for porta loos by summer (CLICK)?
