    Yeah it's gone in a lot of Malahide too. We were okay this morning, there wasn't as much power but my boyfriend's parents have no water at all. Typical we get 2 days of sun and the water goes :rolleyes:

    Have you telephoned the Council to ask what the problem is, and expected time it will be back on?

    Man 'O War seems to suffer more than most when they lower the pressure because of its elevation.

    yep rang and was told it would be back by lunch time it hasnt come back rang again and told it would be back by dinner time, last time the water went in the man o war it was off for 8 days and fingal co co told the residents every time they phoned it would be back by 2pm that same day it didnt come back any of times they promised it would, they should really have a better set up for the man o war the people that live there have to pay the same taxes as people living in other areas that arent elevated :( its a nightmare when you have a baby :(

    Did they explain what the problem is?

    It does not bode well if supplies are running low after a couple of days of warm weather (although, admitedly there has been very little rain for a few weeks now). If we have a good summer we will probably all be suffering water shortages sooner rather than later.

    thats true, what a super country we have if its to cold the pipes freeze and we have no water and then if its to warm the water is also cut off!! and to think they are going to bring in water charges hahahahaha!!

    Water pressure has been very poor in Terenure for the last few weeks but it is terrible since Monday. Anyone else from Terenure notice this.

    Ugh.
    I still wouldn't drink it though, it looks like alka seltzer coiming out of the taps.
