We live at the Plough end of Lordship Lane and have no cold water. Apparently there is a burst main in Oakhurst Grove which Thames Water only found out about an hour ago or so, and they are saying we may not have water until the morning. Not sure whether this is affecting all the streets between us and G Green?


Any more news gratefully received...

There has been two in Oakhurst, one that was resolved earlier this week (that had been reported for two weeks before anything was done) and now there is a new one which when I went by it this morning on my way to work the road was dug up, I had issues with the water in the shower this morning but the water was still running and Im about 4 houses from the main that is burst.

My bedroom overlooks the leak. Two chaps turned up at midnight with a small digger and ... dug.


One big hole and a fountain later, they set too and fixed it. Leaving a big but dry hole surrounded by some plasic fencing.


It was the middle of the night, pishing down with rain, water was coming upward at a rate of knots and it was cold, hats off to them.

    • I hate cooking and I can't cook. I live on stuff out of the freezer which I cook once every six months. I exaggerate only slightly.
    • Simply, give us a snap election now as the last 12 months in office honestly have not been great in any sense. Let someone else have a go at turning around UK plc before it's too late. At least the last administration had the inflation and unemployment rates going in the right direction at the END. 
    • Yes but what's the answer, Jazzer? No government can simply walk in and fix the economy - get the bills down, grow it and reduce debt. There is no silver bullet. The public (and the press) wants everything now, everything cheaper, but with better public services and lower taxes.  In the radio and paper, all you ever hear is pundits, MPs, think tanks and economists saying what won't work, but no one seems to know what will work.  I'm genuinely interested to hear what other views people have on here, and what they think will help, or make things worse. 
    • While they struggle with economics of UK plc, collectively we all suffer as a result of their ineptitude.
