My water in my house is running VERY slowly out of both taps.

Is thi more likely to mean that the pipes are frozen or that one has burst somewhere?

Do you think I should call someone about it?

Cheers,

my taps were sucking air up for ages yesterday. I rang United Utilities to find that there had been a major water leak and that they had to turn off the water to repair it. The repair took a few hours but then they had problems "charging" the system - getting the water to run back through.
All is well now though.

When I rang UU there was a pre recorded message playing to instruct you on water to do if you suspect that your pipes might be frozen. It involved using a hair dryer on the cold water pipe and gently warm it up.

Check with your neighbours, but mine are on a different supply, and then ring up your supplier for advice.

Yes, whatever company supplies your water. A huge reduction in water pressure can result from work they're doing. It's happened to me every now and again. A quick phone call and you'll know whether or not that's the cause.
 
Spoke to my neighbors, they have nothing either. Said it has been out since midnight last night.

Do I brave the journey to the shops to get some lol.
 
gah! I must be one of the last to know! I can't get my car out the drive to get to the proper shop, but I've walked to the local shop and they have sold out of water!

This sucks!
