    Nothing on the City Council site, unsurprisingly.

    lol, how could you not notice your water been out???
    Some places in Rochestown must of had water, I know my sister didn't, but others seemed to.

    Mine water tank (which happens to be right above where I sleep) started coughing and splurting at 12.30 last night, then finally pouring. Got up this morning, taps still not working. The Kitchen tap (which comes directly from the mains) works, so must have an air blockage or something. Anyone know how to deal with that? Leave all the taps open for a while?

    www.taptips.ie

    should be explanation on how to get rid of an air lock
    think it involves tubing and having water in the tank.
