have been without water since early morning - cannot see anyone from Thames Water working on the situation.  Any one heard any news as to when normal service will resume?

 

Have you reported it to Thames Water?

If nobody has, they may not be aware that there is  a problem?

Chatgpt is a joy (and scary) 

No Water on Barry Road" (to the tune of No Woman, No Cry)

(Verse 1)
No water… on Barry Road
No water… on Barry Road
Said, I remember, when we used to flow
In the tap by the old front gate
Oba served us clear, sweet water
Then it vanished like fate

And then the plumber would come in the evening
Fixing pipes, sayin’, "Just hold tight"
But every time we checked the faucet
It was still a dusty fight

(Chorus)
No water… (no water)
On Barry Road (on Barry Road)
No water… yeah
On Barry Road

(Verse 2)
I see the buckets lined up outside
Hope in every pail we hold
The sun be blazing, the kids be crying
And the kettle’s running cold

Good friends we had, and good friends we lost
To the drought along the way
In this bright future, we can't forget the past
But we sure need water today

(Chorus)
No water… no flowin’ tide
On Barry Road… we stand and sigh
No water… but we still survive
On Barry Road… we still try

(Bridge)
Oh, dry days will pass, I know
Pipe dreams gotta start to flow
But until then we wait and pray
For rain or trucks to come our way

(Final Chorus)
No water… (no water)
On Barry Road (on Barry Road)
No water… no pride
But still we rise…

(It refused to sing it for me)

    • I have had multiple jobs completed at my home by T.D. PLUMBFIX SOLUTIONS LTD, and I wouldn't go to anyone else now. They always come at the agreed day/time, I have never been asked to rearrange. The jobs have always been completed to extremely high standards, and as a perfectionist myself, I appreciate this level of care and detail. I'm grateful of the clear up afterward too, leaving me very little to do after the job is done. I am always blown away by the speed and efficiency  - no waffle, no flannel, just sheer hard work from start to finish. In summary - a highly professional first class service. Don't hesitate to call T.D. PLUMBFIX SOLUTIONS LTD, if you like excellence and trade people that will respect your home. 
    • Or increase tax.  The freezing of personal allowances is one way, not what I would choose.  On principle I don't care if the rich immigrate.  The main parties could have been more honest before the election.  Reform is deluded.
    • I edited my post because I couldn't be sure we were talking about politicians and I couldn't be bothered to read it all back. But it was off the back of a thread discussing labour councillors, so it went without saying really and I should have left it.  What I said was 'There's something very aggressive about language like that - it's not big and it's not clever. Some of the angry energy that comes from the far left is pretty self-defeating.' (In relation to a labour councillor rather immaturely, in my view, wearing a jumper that read 'fuck the Tories').  But I don't recall saying that "violent rhetoric" is exclusively the domain of the left wing. So I do think you're taking a bit of a bit of leap here.
