    Sorry, not from Longwood, but in general, I can see that you might be the latest member of The Water Appreciation Society...
    We've lived in Dunshaughlin for the last six years and we have had many "No water" scenarios, and even "We have water but it's a disgusting brown colour" scenarios.
    I am the last person in the world who would advocate giving more money to the Government in the form of taxes (or in any form!) but I have come to the conclusion in recent years that the waste of water by the general public is nothing short of scandalous!
    Water charges should have been brought in donkey's years ago...it is the most precious resource in the world, much more so than oil, which is a commodity that has been placed artificially high in the "precious" league purely down to commercially and politically motivated power brokers.
