    I saw the funniest thing yesterday, my neighbour with a pan fetching snow and boiling it for water.
    Class!

    Water pipes froze two days ago and the bloody oven decided to stop working last night - best Christmas in years.

    No problems with water apart from the South Dublin County Council nightly restrictions. Water from the tap is lovely and cold.

    Do you not realise that people stupidly leaving their taps running is the reason everyone's water supply has been cut off at night.

    mine has not been affected and has pressure that would cut ya in two.

    But it coming out of the tap at 2 degrees. In sallins.

    I have put a line of kingspan insulation across the ground where the line is, to protect it pipe. Record lows tonight....

    fire on. heating on . heater on in the attic. attic door open a little.

    Feck leaving water pouring all day. If you are at that carry on you should catch yourself on and consider others.


    Keep a couple of spare buckets of water full and leave in your bathroom. You may need them to refill your toilet cistern or wash with if you freeze tonight

    We leave our tap running every so often. the pipes don't freeze every day, but this does actually seem to work. Dad spends quite a bit of time trying to unfreeze them when it does happen. pain in the bollix I think. but at least he can fix it. so glad not to have to worry about it going any more.

    should probably mention, in case anyone's sitting there fuming at me, that we have our own well, so no I'm not wasting all your water by running the taps :D

    Fine and very unlikely to freeze- my estate has the pipes too close to the surface so loads of houses on our road have no water but my dad dug ours down deeper when we got the drive done 2 years ago. They DID freeze in '82 though.:D
