Broken waterpipe - let's start the clock
I noticed yesterday that there is a broken waterpipe outside 'Dead S****y' .... Let's start the clock to see how long it takes for this to be repaired.... One day and counting....

It appears to have stopped. Probably the lack of vehicle pressure because of lack of school runs (good English, eh?)this week has enabled it to heal itself. Unless it was mended in the dead of night...

Maybe its in cahoots with the power supply to Parliament Square - this is more or less intermittent these days! It's so much fun trading in the dark!

How does
'the water turn off or re-routed' Steve? Water follows a course which only it can find and cannot re-route. Did you mean that the water
was 'turned' off or re-routed?
