Save sanity of working mothers

I am a very irritated mother of a four-year-old who has to juggle looking after a house, family and working three days a week.

I do not appreciate the appalling water quality we are experiencing on the Woy Woy Peninsula.

I resent the extra time it takes for me to get my washing clean, let alone the extra cost in water, electricity, soak products and washing powder used to remove the putrid stains caused by Gosford Council's water.

I wonder how much I could save on future Gosford Council Water Consumption Accounts if I had decent quality water to wash with?

What a joke that I have to pay the State Government an increased Water Saving Contribution when it is the foul water supply that causes my family to consume more water than we should.

Please, Gosford Council, fix this water quality problem, not only for the sake of our water supply, but also for the mental health of all of us working mothers on the Woy Woy Peninsula.
