Neighbour and water

Do they not go out into the garden?  Or do they don raincoats and wellies?

Water meters should be compulsory. 
This would stop people doing this 

Well rich people will be fine , just those on limited budgets will be affected.

But they are not compulsory right now.
Until they are, you seem to be getting all het up about somebody doing something that is not against the law.

Lobby your MP if you want to see water meters made compulsory.
Find your MP - MPs and Lords - UK Parliament

I'd possibly report it if there was a ban & they'd truly left it running as described, if not I'd just mind my own business. 

There's no ban here.. Yet
But it is not very nice is it?
They are an elderly couple in their late eighties 

So basically they aren’t breaking any rules you just don’t think it is ‘nice’. I think you would look very foolish to report something because you are jealous of their sprinkler or just don’t think it is nice. There are still sprinklers being used in some council green areas where I live, hoses are being used to water public areas there is no ban in place so they aren’t breaking any rules. A neighbour hired a large rigid pool and filled that up, again breaking no rules

Meaniswhile a relative of mine lives in an area that has had a massive water leak, their local area was actually flooded to more than an inch deep due to issues with pipes that the water company cannot afford to repair. I think that is much more of an issue than being jealous of your neighbours. 

Jealous of a sprinkler - don't think so!!
What a weird thing to imagine!!
It's just a Blantant "Vees up at the world - we don't care", attitude
Otherwise why do it at night? 

Because if you do it during the day you loose some of the water to evaporation in the daytime heat
