We have no water! Sometime between getting up and making tea, and then going to have showers half an hour later, the water packed up. [livejournal.com profile] adaese rang Wessex Water, who said, "Ring Bristol Water," who had a recorded message saying, "We've got a burst water main". So now [livejournal.com profile] adaese has soapy hair, and I have a loo that won't flush.

Oh, no, what a pain. It was bad enough for us, but at least we had enough warning that we didn't get caught out like that.

Any eta on a repair?

The water was back by the time I went to work. Then disappeared again the next morning; but was again fixed by the time I went to work.

On a walk on Friday evening, we found a hole in the road, with water company signs round it. I guess that is where the problem was.

Aargh! And that sort of thing always does happen at the worst possible moment, never when you're wondering whether to wash the car but can't really be bothered. HOpe you are desoaped and flushed soon!

With so many thirsty beasties to care for, this is one of my nightmares. I do hope you're not without for long.

Yes, I'm sure. My father often had several thousand birds to care for, which gave him similar worries.

I always find it a complete nightmare when the water goes off unannounced (which fortunately isn't very often). Hope it is back on now.

We had a fountain outside our previous house in Bristol.
