Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Apart from running a tap, is there any other way?
    Very worried that we will have no water in the morning, the mains supply seems to be burred very shallowly in our house.

    Would covering the ground in old blankets help?

    Internet suggests a helicopter to keep the air moving!!! Probably above budget.
