Guy on the phone advised water will be probably restored late afternoon/early pm but no promises (however he said 99% sure within 24 hours). They are getting more engineers down - it's by the Grove. Complicated water main, but they are delivering palettes for the area.


We were meant to have an open day at our tennis club (Camber LTC) today with a massive BBQ - what an unfortunate day for this leakage to happen.

Just spoke to TW again.


JCB on its way to start digging hole. Police on site. Road closed. TfL on site. Broken 4" main. They haven't actually started digging yet, apparently. (This info was notified to TW cust services 15 minutes ago.)


The 6-hour legal guarantee for water only kicks in once they reach the main (by digging) and cut the supply, they say. NOT from when your water supply stops.


They say they have ordered a few pallets of water, but there are no locations agreed yet, and it will be first come first served (with a hint from the person that I spoke to that there won't be enough initially and they will order more later).

:-)

I'm sure you'll be fine, tash.


Back in the day, not so long ago (early 80s), I remember visiting the then Lambeth Walk public baths for a fantastic bathing experience. Hot water pressure to die for. I think it cost one-pound-something. You could do your laundry downstairs too.

A van with bottles of water is on LL by the shops opposite the Grove if you need any.


It's not affecting the Lordship Lane Estate which continues to have water supply. Can't say if it's affecting Dukes Court, but everything on the other side of LL down that end is cut off.

    • If you're talking about who I think you are, I find them more exuberant than rude and usually smiling and polite. But then, I'm usually smiling and polite to them. Can you not wedge open your gate when you're expecting them?
    • It worked. Corbyn did similar although not to the same degree. Momentum had a purge too when Corbyn got in. All his political life he opposed the EU but when it came to the crunch he publicly backed them during the referendum. I believe that was to appease the middle classes that he was appealing to. He messed up big time when wooing the middle classes at Glastonbury whilst ignoring his core working class voters up north. They also happened to be leave voters. He got starstruck and forgot about his politics. Corbynmania was thing, a movement but it was also the making of his downfall. For the many and not the few came back and slapped him right in the face. 
    • Nothing to do with the tories overspending whatsoever eh! Blame the last 10/11 years of blatant mismanagement, incompetence and willful deceit on the poor bastards that were left with the fall out of a complete car crash tory government.   One PM after another falling on their sword. Open corruption and piss taking throughout covid and a legacy of huge debt and destruction yet in your view it will be labour's 4 years in power that bankrupts us in 2029.  Another one that must think people are blind and stupid.  Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃
    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....
