Over the past two months, we’ve had three separate instances of having no water for at least 24 hours.
Nursery closed because there was no water.
No water at home.
No water at the gym.

Each time it basically throws the entire day into chaos. It’s happened so often that people at work probably think I’m making it up at this point. 😂

And this is London — supposedly one of the best-connected cities in the world, with world-class infrastructure and transport.

I genuinely feel like the infrastructure in some Bulgarian villages is more reliable than what I’m experiencing here.

Meanwhile, our Thames Water bill has increased massively over the last few years while, from my experience at least, the reliability of the service seems to have gone in completely the opposite direction.

Is this just particularly bad luck in my area, or are other Londoners experiencing this many water outages too?

How can you live like this?!

Over the course of 2 months there were 3 instances of no water for at least 24h - nursery closed, no water at home, no water at the gym - the day absolutely ruined - people at work think I’m making this up.

We are in london! Supposedly the best city to live in - best infrastructure / transport etc etc.

I think the infrastructure is more reliable in a Bulgarian village than here.

Absolute joke Thames Water - increasing the bill by 300% over the last 6 years and making the service 1000% worse!
