Thousands of homes in Kent are without water this morning in what's being described as the worst case of burst pipes in decades...

Properties in Sittingbourne, Ashford and Lenham are affected.

Stations have been set up to give out bottled water but a number of schools are closed. 

Work is continuing to fix the leaks and we're all being urged to use water sensibly.
