The Isle of Man Water and Sewerage Authority says thousands of people between Farmhill and Crosby are still without water this lunchtime (Monday).
A mains supplying the Braaid reservoir burst on the Snugborough trading estate, early this morning.

Ballacottier head teacher Carol Walsh says the lack of water hasn't caused too much disruption:
