It's solvable. Or at least, I have a solution!

I could solve this! But I would have to get up too early to post one. So I leave it up to you guys whose habit it is to be the wiser.

So: @musefan
I told you it was solvable!
Unless ... this is a bluff? Hmmm ...

Never mind - I don't have it. (That 12 does mean something after all).

Just had a call from Dwr Cymru to say the water may be off - only 4.5 hours after it went out so they are pretty quick - so I check the tap and we have pressure! Kettle filled, and ... they ring back again to say it may be off.
Think I'm getting the idea: they only ring when it's fixed to tell you it isn't there ... computers, who'd have 'em?

It just to make you think that they are good - 5 seconds after ringing you it is already back...

You are sitting on an island, right? Then how can it be that you have no access to water? It may be salt water, but you don't have to be Rambo to solve that tiny problem.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

To be honest, we get a lot of ramblers in the mountains, and I'm not convinced they all take their pee home ...

Were you in my squad about 25 years ago? I had shown them how to make a filter and boiled it for at least 20 minutes and none of them wanted to try some fresh clean water after it cooled off. Big heroes, all of them.

After it's filtered / boiled I'd probably drink it (though there are a few rivers round here that I wouldn't touch due to the lead / mercury / arsenic bleeding out of old mine workings which niether of your systems would touch - they need distillation for purification).
But ... I'd rather not fill my kettle with diluted urine in the first place!

Yep, that's the first rule. Before doing any filtering and boiling, first take a good look at the place you take the water from.

OriginalGrylls can always solve those problems. The coffee might taste like piss though.

Did they say "the water may be off", or "the water may be off"?
What colour is it, and how does it taste?
|

IIRC the phrase they use is "may be experiencing low water pressure, or no water at all at this time" and go on to say "When the water supply is restored some customers may notice some discolouration of their tap water, this is normal in this situation and the water should clear when run from a cold tap." Which means "It's going to be brown and muddy for an hour or two, you might want to run it for a bit before drinking it".
Last time I had to take small gravel out of the loo cistern because it was blocking the refill valve and making it run continuously ...

You should bottle the brown water, send it back to them, and ask for a refund on the basis "not as advertised".
Or at least bill them for a "manual end-point filtration fee", plus a fixed admin fee of course

It seems that way every time I get thE bill ...

Got up at 05:30 this morning, and went to make
No water.
Burst water mains at 03:52 apparently. Quote: "We anticipate that water supplies should begin returning to normal by later this morning."
"later this morning"?
No coffee.
Seriously. NO COFFEE
Expect a cranky OG today - I've just been to the supermarket for bottled water, but it's not going to be the same ... NO COFFEE ... help. Feeling sleepy ...
(I may be overreacting a touch, but ... NO COFFEE).

Have you considered to boil some of the water from the bottle for your coffee?
