Bastards! Why can't this sort of thing just happen in Bermondsey where it does not matter?

They don't have running water there.

Heads up. Big Thames Water lorry full of bottled water on Denton Road top of Station Road Crayford for anyone that needs it. Going quick.

All gone. The Evelyn Street massive have taken it all. Good prep for next year's London Marathon

It did in 1987, they still haven't noticed.

I guess I could be to blame, I used to work for a company who replaced all the water pipes in Bermondsey a few years ago. Flooding should be off the agenda for a while

Did you leave a special valve though that can be turned on to flood the whole of the New Den and surrounding areas?

Justin20474

Unfortunately not, waiting to do work on the sewers to sort that out.

Alwaysneil

Couple of amendments to the plans for the big super sewer and it could end up just in the right place.

anyone aware of any knock on effect from this?

we have lost about 75% water pressure at home.

Lost about 15%-20% pressure in da17 too since the incident.
