    I rang 1st thing too - mains pipe burst and they " expect " to have service restored at lunchtime.
    Considering I've no water from midnight every night it's an awful pain.

    Also did anyone else in the Balbriggan area get a warning notice off Fingal for having their wheelie bins out the front of their house ?
    I did - apparantly I can't leave it at my front door as it's blocking a footpath - which technically is correct but the bins are in the recess of my front door so why anyone would be in there apart from me is baffling.

    Think I'll just have to lug it in and out now !

    lol,
    I keep mine out the back garden:)
    I wonder did the people who park on the pavement or the people that block the roads by parking their cars on them get them too?

    Always wondered about leaving bins outside all the time, is it not a bit of a risk with regards to identity theft?

    back on topic, the water was gone also in baronshall, it seems to be back now although it's a bit spultery at the moment, chances are it's just an airlock from this morning.

    I shred any personal documents at work - never leave anything like that in the green bin or otherwise.
    It's def a consideration though Gilo
