Welcome. Its a bit quiet lately, but there's a few good gents that have helped me out over the years. @elmoputney is all about bait atm

From what I understand,no new reservoirs have been built for around 40 years. Put that to the increase in population and demand, it's disgraceful that our most precious resource has been run for profit of investors. 6 days without water. Apparently due to a storm preventing sufficient treatment, along with the frost causing pipes to leak. Strange how weather is all of a sudden an issue?? They'd of blamed Bexit if they thought we'd believe it

Still no flipping water

We need a change at the top, unfortunately, it would appear Labour are our best option , but the mainstream press (as always) seem to turn the majority of sheeple against them??? After the mess the Boris crowd left it's going to take quite a few years, not months. Starma might not be charismatic, but we don't need that. Someone with their head screwed on who will put the people first, not the big corporations.

Friday night mate. Don't get me wrong, I've not had it as hard as others. Im fortunate to have a 10000l pool in the garden, so buckets for flushing the loo. Water came on for a few hours yesterday but was very cloudy and chalky. We managed a shower and a few loads of washing. Ran out again by tea time. Easily collected bottled water yesterday.

As an update, still no running water. I do hope this won't effect the shareholders profits

She's a long time gone mate, but that was the start of it. This kind of thing just shows how fragile our infrastructure is and who's going to do anything about it??

The only country in the world to privatise it's most natural resource???

Old thread i know, but the only one I could find How much longer are we going to put up with the complete ack of reinvestment in our infrastructures. My town (estimated 16,500 homes) is without water, due to a burst mains. This has caused utter chaos all day. These private firms pay out to the shareholders and hope everything else sorts it's self out. Then they have the cheek to say we got to pay more. Oil prices are another, perfect example of us being bent over Reform is needed, just not the party.

Thanks @elmoputney This years been one to forget. New year, new start! New PB on our social🤞 Best wishes to all

C'mon @elmoputney! I'm crossing everything for you (& a bit jealous).

I know the feeling mate. Fishing time is precious with a young family under normal circumstances, let alone when you've just moved. We had the first real frost this morning, that's been very productive for me in the past when I had the time to go. March will soon come around and we can go for that big beautiful common🤞🤞🤞

Its a shame really. A mate had a new pb (43) the other night. I can't stick up the picture though. This is usually the best time to be out imo. Family stuff means, I'm not able to get out at minute. How's the pond life?

Catching, now that's a whole different level

I just keep wishing I was fishing
