British building practices

It should be illegal here too. No-one should have low letterboxes. Or if they do they should be made to do a postman's job for a week. It's not necessary.

It is. I believe you can have grey water tanks for toilet flushing in some areas. I believe that all new builds should have them by law.

Maybe we're ahead of you there with the equal opportunities for the dwarf postpeople. That's why the letters take longer to get delivered around christmas-time - all the dwarf postpeople are getting evening jobs in pantomime. And it explains why there is no post delivery at all on christmas day - the dwarfs are sleeping in after a busy night duty helping Santa's elves, who can't cope with the rush on their own.

How do the leprechauns deliver things in Ireland if the letter boxes are up high?

The low letter boxes are harder to widdle through

It isn't. Its standard on any house with a combi.

Well if you interpret the OP sentence "everything will be fed from the mains, toliets etc." as

"everything will be fed from the mains: Toilets etc."

rather than..

"everything will be fed from the mains toilets, etc."

Its not normal to use toilets as tanks and feeders for your dinking water, even in Ireland.

Never heard of a letterbox rule in the UK (so I suspect it's allowed whereever); there's certainly no problem with not having any water tanks.
