No cold water....

I've no cold water in my bathroom this morning...

It still flows as expected in the kitchen but the toilet, sink and bath are dry as a bone....

Any ideas about the problem before I call in the plumber?

    itll be a problem in the loft. all the bathroom water is fed from a storage tank.
    (old method) all the kitchen water is fed from the mains.
    so the tank maybe dry?
    or a blockage?

    assuming no one has turned off a stopcock/valve overnight?

    I'll have a look at the tank when I get home.

    thats the reason why you should only drink from the kitchen tap.
    (older plumbing/heating sytems with a cws tank).

    combi systems are different.
