Got to my boys at 7am this morning and it was pitch black. Motor was stressing and I could hear plip plopping going on and when I opened up the door, I was paddling in water
The joint under Motor's waterer had come adrift, as it had warmed up overnight, and he was paddling and very upset
.... whilst my TB was oblivious, even though it was running through his stable and out into the yard next door
After turning off the water I had to do an emergency clear up and get to work, stinking of horses
I had been trying to turn the water off for days, but the stop cock was frozen on
So tonight, I had to remove most of their bedding and get their beds back in order. Luckily, as they both have rubber mats under a full bed, the water managed to seep out underneath, so it could have been alot worse
Further luck being that they are renovating the yard next to me, and therefore a lovely chap repaired the burst and told me he had found two other joints that had come adrift and a burst pipe as well ....... so all back to normal now PHEW
