Thanks!
There's actually a blanket that goes underneath that too, to protect the roof rubber - this one acts as a reservoir and root barrier.
It has the benefit of retaining a lot of the rain that falls, meaning that I can have a water butt, rather than faffing about with a soakaway.
Nice! That sounds like a great system, and handy to avoid the soakaway, ends up taking way more room than you expect!
Are you planning to do anything with the collected water?
Plant watering, mostly. Although I expect I'll just end up breading mosquitoes.
