A burst main in Milngavie, Glasgow, caused flooding and left 100,000 homes in Scotland without water.

Areas affected included Glasgow City centre, Kelvinside, Tradeston, Ibrox, Knightswood, Yoker, Scotstoun and Partick area.

"The taps went from being a normal flow to a trickle," said Jack, a barman at Panang in Glasgow's city centre."People need to be able to wash their hands." Describing the situation as "frustrating", Jack said it posed a bigger issue to staff in terms of a loss of tips than it did to the business as a whole."We'd really like to get an answer on whether or not we'll be trading tomorrow by later on tonight," he said, adding that prolonging the closure for more than a day would be "a nightmare"."

"If something like this happens in your flat, you go and shower at the gym, don't you?" he said, "But when this happens to an entire city, that's not an option for anyone."
