Waterless weekend - but nearly not

ARGH!
We had envisaged a celebration of water on Saturday - in true catalogue style - happy smiling people running through sprinklers in the sunshine. By 10.30pm - with the house in darkness, we stopped work. We’d achieved a hole, a tap and a pipe, and with friends and family had grafted all day… with not a drop of a shower to show for it, let alone a sprinkle, or a shower.
We were so close to having water… but the pump is faulty, therefore we spend 8 hours trying to figure out what the problem was - ruling out anything other than a faulty pump. This will be returned to the shop, who may or may not make us wait 30 days for a repair (yes, on something that is newly purchased and faulty, and essential to our water supply - compared with the UK, the Czech customer is always wrong.).
It’s been such a long time the house has been dry… it’s been so limiting.
