So they won't change the bathwater from the soapies?

As we've had hardly any Government water for the past month and a bit this really won't make much difference.

 

Discovered yesterday that the meter is still running when nothing but air is being pumped in! Wondered why the bills were so high!  What chance of a refund?

It has been down a bit more than usual, but still have water every other day or so here.

 

Last time they announced something like this it was back on again in 3 days or so, I'm hoping for the same. One week is simply too much, the tanks can't hold enough for that period.

Yes, a bit strange announcing a water shut off when there is no water to shut off.  ????
