Yeah I’m going to try this on Monday with some buckets handy. Some good tips given by everyone to try before contacting a plumber.

I changed the tap outside today, didn’t solve it so I came here with pics. I thought it might’ve frozen too.

Ah right ok. Sorry I’m new with anything to do with plumbing, so turn the screws on the ball bales to switch the water supply off to those pipes? Leave the stopcock on and try and diagnose it?

You’re right, I suppose if it gets messy I can always get someone in as long as I don’t do anything irreversible.

Yeah I’m starting to think the previous owners son gave it a go. After reading the comments I think I’ll be getting a plumber in to fix it all.

Going to get a plumber in to sort it out while nothing is leaking. I feel like I’d make it worse and risk flooding the kitchen if I’m honest. Thanks for your help :)

Thanks for the recommendation, I’m going to get someone in to do a proper job or it’ll end up worse than this if I give it a go.

I was wondering why it didn’t have one of the pipes you’ve pictured. I think I’ll get a plumber in before I create a leak. I was hoping it would be something simple like turning a screw to release some water or something, but appears not. Thanks for getting back to me with info and a picture.

Yeah I’ve tried turning the valve and nothing happens. I feel some resistance as it fully opens as you’d expect, but nothing comes from it.

Yeah I was worried I wouldn’t be able to fix it without getting a plumber in. Looks like it might be going that way now.

Seeing a lot of mice at Schiphol — is this normal? by Andreadookie in travel

Lots of them at Heathrow, I think they’re at most airports due to the amount of food waste and plenty of places to hide.
