There was a water tanker in Longrow around 7ish tonight. Burst pipe across from Argyll Bakeries - they have been trying to fix it since yesterday.

Yes, and two emenergency water supply tankers on the esplanade. Water didn't go off this side of town but heard it was off up the steel houses for some time and properties in Burnside Street since yesterday.

Someone said to be in the Main Street the whole town is off due to the main pipe being burst. Does anyone know if the town is ultimately served by one pipe or are there various different ones? Where in fact does the water come from? (serious question )

SCD, severe drop in pressure on your side today. I doot, I doot you were oot, at the time

The water that comes from the Waterhouse serves Campbeltown, Machrihanish and down the Southend Road. Although I think the split at the bottom of the Waterhoose Brae carries on through Johnny Barbour's field and out at the Moy for the pans and so on?

I'm sure someone will be able to be more precise.

I phoned Scottish Water as all this week the water has been on and off.

And of course the washing machine was on overdrive to be told by Shannon that it was making a funny noise and the taps weren't on!

So SW told me that the water was off as there was a mains burst and 2000 homes were affected to 4pm today!

Not handy when we aren't notified!

Our water was down to a dribble for a while yesterday (Milknowe area) but fine today. I see they are working on it again today though at Burnbank and Longrow. Have it from a reliable source that there are several places with burst pipes around the town. Fill your kettle just in case I recon!
