    Anyone else in Maynooth have water?
    I am not sure if it is gone or the stop cock has frozen again:(

    You can try pouring a kettle of boiling water on to the stop cock for a start.

    If only it was that simple.
    The attached neighbour had water so it was just me again!
    Luckily it only lasted a day this time.
    I filled up some water containers just in case it freezes again tonight.

    Moonbeam, if possible run an extension lead into your attic and plug in a lamp with a minimum 60 max 100 watt bulb. This is enough to take the sting out of the cold night. Done the same last year and after a few frozen nights it done the trick when i put it up there. Try to put a board across the beams to stand the lamp on. Don't forget to plug it out in the morning.
