Dropped off, or just they didn't have the right location?
Having seen an email in which
said they were due to repair a leak at number 19 last Thursday, I had a cycle round looking for and photographing leaks as currently on their web site. The one at 19 Manor Mount is very much still there, as I don't suppose I need to tell regulars of this Forum. There is a leak marked round the corner, which I couldn't see though, so maybe that is it.
And since I'm about it, here is the leak in the middle of Ewelme Road, outside No 40
and the one on Waldram Crescent part of the South Circular
Anyway, I'm now about to contact those of you on this thread who responded to my PMs, and Kate Gould from the South London Press to set up a photo opportunity for a story which should help get more attention paid to this problem, not only by Thames Water, but maybe even local councillors and amenity societies. Manor Mount would see the best location - and obviously if anyone else wants to be in on it, so much the better.
I make no secret of my greater interest in the wider picture, of why we have this system in which not enough money is invested in maintaining the public good of well functioning infrastructure. For more read various posts on the thread about the leak on my road in Sydenham, which still isn't really sorted, but doesn't offer as good a photo op as Manor Mount.
But let's be quick, before Thames Water do a short term patch and mend.
