I'm just yards from Venner road but no water again today. Apparently it's due to a burst watermain in Dulwich on the south circular at Thurlow Park Rd and Gallery Road. Thames Water not giving any ETA at all right now.

I did wonder if that might be contributing. Pressure was reasonable at about 7.30 this morning, but by 10.00 had slowed to just a trickle. Reasonably okay at the moment, but don't know how long it will last. Didn't want to even risk running the shower, because it has this nasty low-pressure cutout which will blow the hose out of the unit and then you have to call an electrician or someone to re-attach it. I wasn't prepared to see how low a pressure it takes to trigger it :)
