Hi Sarah & Lisa ....Just an update for you....my colleague went yet again down to the Town Hall this morning to discuss the situation with the Mayor, who said that he had no idea when the matter would be resolved as there had been yet another breakdown immediately following the so called repair...I have now in turn contacted the Euro Weekly Newspaper and told them of our plight and total disgust and frustration after suffering 7 days now without a water supply and of the total incompetence and helplessness of the whole situation, so please please if you would like to add your own input to the story regarding the dire situation we have at present here then please email jackie@euroweeklynews.com and advise her how much affect this is having on you and your neighbours. We really do need to throw as much weight as we can behind this and get out voices heard!. Hopefully we will get a resumption of water services again sometime soon hey?.

Hi. Thanks for the update.  We have just been down to the offices.The good news is they have fitted a new part and are going to try and get it working over the weekend. The bad news is if it doesn't work they are going to have to bring a team of peaple in to fit a whole new system. How long this will take nobody knows. It's a case of keeping everything crossed for the weekend.

Hi Steve, 

Do you have water yet? I have written to euro weekly, to put my view forward.
