waking up this morning to find no water :sad: apparently a pump has gone belly up leaving the whole town and surrounding villages with no mains pressure

the press release says a few hundred houses which is there way of playing down the fact that over 10000 affected

we're half way through november and we haven't had a frost yet ! :shock: I can remember years when I was a kid that you went 8 to 10 days with temperatures dropping below zero every night trees turning white due to freezing fog !

This has been a very mild november so far which is just as well the price of gas as it is.

Or are you noticing the cold because you're miserable after the blades slashed your points tally for today down to one. :wink:

London traffic.

Been up there three times last week, and it's a nightmare.

How London PHVs earn a living only god knows.
