Irish Water are "hopeful" that a repair won't take as long this time, but I have to question their optimism, given the problems that delayed the repair last time.

Hopefully, it won't take 2 days to get tankers moving to resupply the reservoirs in the areas affected, and a temporary feed into the treatment works will be possible more quickly this time.

Shore, if it was easy, everybody would be doin it.😁
