We realized as we were getting ready for bed last night that we not only have no HOT water – we have NO water at all! It seems the plumbers turned off the water to the boiler and it resulted in all the water being off. Not quite sure how to turn it back on since it all looks like it goes through the boiler – although it doesn’t make sense. Surely there should be a way… But 11 pm is no time to call a plumber unless we want to pay dearly for water!
So I have already been out this am to Tim Hortons. We may be able to wash up at someone else’s but we cannot start the day off without coffee!

When the plumber comes back, ask him to show you where the stopcock is.
I’ve always done my own plumbing, although our Rayburn has just sprund a leak in the water jacket š¦ That isn’t fixable by me :-((
aaaagggghhhh!!! Having lived with the total re-fit of two bathrooms over the last 6 months, the no-water scenario is very familiar! Although I must say my marvellous plumbers always left having checked that I had at least one tap working, and a kettle full of water. (Maybe because they got used to my tea-making)
We are back to water on – just cold. But hope is in sight.
