Lynda Campbell, 68, has been left without water and heating in her bungalow
As temperatures plummeted to -8C, Lynda Campbell went to bed fully clothed, wrapped in a dressing gown and her duvet. She feared the worst and hoped for the best.
At about 2.30pm on Wednesday, a water pipe in the loft of her bungalow on St Anne's Road in Audenshaw burst and flooded the property, rendering her without water and almost no heating. Carpets and furniture and as well as her cooker and boiler were damaged. Lynda, who has 13 grandchildren, said she was told the pipes were frozen solid the damage couldn't be fixed any time soon.
"This is my home. It's not the same, living in a hotel room. But I can't live here. I'll freeze to death. It's colder indoors than it is outdoors."
