    I'm in Paddys Cross Barna and we have no water for the past 3 days, I was hope with the thaw outside it should be back by now but still nothing :-(

    The council warned us on their website about high up areas in Barna and Moycullen not having water.

    Thanks to both of you for the replies. It's a comfort knowing that other parts of the higher areas are still unthawed! I was beginning to worry that I might have a supply pipe burst outside the house. There's a standpipe in Barna Village (Paintbox Road). Nearly out of stored water so time to head there! :)

    Nothing to do with thawing, there is no pressure.

    I came up to my parent's house on the 22nd and they were without water. The water actually only came back this morning.

    So is this just a case of some kind of pipe leakage or a supply issue from the reservoir? Is there anything we can do?:confused:

    Glad you got your supply back too Greenpixel - ours returned last night. Who would think the sight of a running tap could be such a thrill? :D
