A Bowser is a mobile fuel tank?
Don't forget to add your name...
A bowser could be used to hold fuel, but remember some of the problems that the people of Gloucester had because of the flooding hitting a water treatment plant and electricity sub-station.
a bowser could be used to store and transport water from flooded areas.
They are temporary water supply containers, which were put into place when the mains water was contaminated.
What happened next of course is that (unspurprisingly) a lot of them were stolen...and more were vandalised.
There have also been warnings about cowboy builders taking advantage of the thousands of people who need a builder to carry out repair work.
