Came along crystal palace road by the leisure centre and water was just gushing out of a big hole in the road , looks like thames water had all ready been there at some point as 4 way  temporarily traffic lights are there at junction and barriers around the hole but nobody there to stop it , yet I got a £19 increase in my water bill each month ...

Thames Water is at the High Court today trying to get a £3bn loan extension sorted. If it isn't then they will go bust and go into administration (actually it's more complex than that). If I was a contractor supplier to them I might well not be doing work I might not be paid for until that's sorted. 

Doesn't help us ordinary Joe's who just live in their bailiewick of course. But who cares about us?

Don’t forget that Forest Hill Rd is closed completely by Piermont Green thanks to yet another leak, so no 63 bus south of Rye Lane and 363 on diversion up Barry Rd.  Also there’s a large hole at the top of Forest Hill Rd at the junction with Honor Oak Rd and traffic control, again courtesy of TW.
At this rate, the area will be cutoff from the rest of London, as it will be surrounded by a moat. I wonder if anyone has costed how much T.W. costs London as a result of their frequent and endless failures. Still, shareholder dividends and management bonuses all courtesy of a captive market. As Private Eye would say, trebles all round!

    • Nah, the lines are applied hot and cool down quickly so the trucker didnt have to wait more than 5 minutes. The good news is that the owner drove the car away around 5pm without a ticket.  
    • East Dulwich Grove is currently closed to a Thames Water leak also, with diversions for the 37 and 42. 
    • There is a small tabby cat which seems quite distressed and lost behind the bins outside the back yard of Superdrug at the Lordship Lane end of North Cross Road. It is terrified, running in and out of Superdrug’s back yard and across the road and back again, and looks as if it could be pregnant. It is also starving – a passer was feeding it. We weren’t able to catch it as it was too scared. Did ask the Neighbourhood Vet if anyone has reported a missing cat, but they said not.
