    Anyone else in this area having problems? Nothing on the radio or council websites about it being turned off so Im thinking the pipes have frozen again...............

    On Douglas road and no water upstairs since last night, hoping it's just the pressure and not a freeze though because this happened during the last cold spell and was fine again after a day.

    Fingers crossed

    In Maryborough Hill area near Douglas and water has gone off. Not sure if it's frozen pipes or supply. It has never frozen before, so I'm inclined to think it's a supply issue.

    A towel and warm water sounds like a safe option.

    Being serious, up in Gurranabraher at noon today the pipes in my house were frozen. My dad had to use a heatgun to get them running again.
