there might be a stop cock that feeds her bath taps ONLY - they might be plumbed in a bit cackly

If she needs to fill the bath, use the shower, or use one of those 1920's plastic shower-things that you can attach to your sink and then trail into the bath...

Why is she panicking? It's a funny thing to panic about

hmmm i think she is failing to see the funny side at the mo.

snooooort

she is going to need a plumber one way or another I suspect

if the sink is near the bath, she should go out and buy one of those 1970s thingies from Asda NOW so she can use the bath over the weekend...

She is a singing coach. Maybe the taps got intimidated. I know I do when she belts stuff out.
