    Thar she blows....a burst water main in central Dunedin has created a geyser four storeys high outside Farmers on George Street



    The Country's Rowena Duncam says people in her office felt the water main explode...and initially thought it was an earthquake.

    She says people from all over the CBD are coming to take a look at what's a very impressive water spout.
