So yesterday I could definitely hear the hiss of escaping water under pressure somewhere in the kitchen.
Some tiles lifted later and that confirmed that yes, the inward supply pipe is punctured and water escaping.
Because this is before our own house stopcock I go out to the street to find the external one...and there is none to be found.
So I phoned the council who said there's only one common one for the street, which they can only switch off in the day.
Today they come out to switch it off, only to find it has rusted solid.
So tomorrow some men with a JCB are going to dig up and replace the mains stopcock.
I'm glad this also happens to non IT projects.
[ Update ]
I went to the builders providers and got a stick on temporary repair - yes indeed...I have deployed a patch fix!

Didn't they try turning it off and on again first ? 
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

No they couldn't turn it off, therefore they couldn't turn it on again.

If smashed hard enough on it, it should still work 
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");

I like your thinking, don't try that with a supply pipe to the whole street though.

While they are busy doing that take the chance to install a separate one for your house.

That is the plan  (Especially if its on their dime)

How sad...It has a perfect design...They left room for occasional 'Do Not' just above the 'Enter'... 
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

So, some testing is being done, someone has logged a problem, something they trying to do isn't working.
A quick look, and I see that it isn't meant to work, by design, a stupid design maybe, but it was decided early on in the project in 2010 that it should be this way by people far more important then me and her,
So I explain this, knowing I have told her this before, and after sending the email decide to search back through my emails.
I have explained the same thing to her once a year since 2010 now.
Have a guess at her job title, I'll give you a clue P______ M______.

I used to work with an International Sale Manager who reported the same thing as a bug five or six times a year. Every year.
That was exactly how it was supposed to work, designed by the MD, it's all in the user manual, take it up with him...
Mind you, he was the same guy that complained we didn't fit long enough mains leads. His was about a foot long and way too short. Strange - we fitted 2m as standard.
Turns out whenever he went to a new country, he'd cut off the old plug with scissors, throw it away and fit a new one...

When this happens to me, I just re-send the old e-mail, usually does the trick.
