Blocked drain

-



 If I had the tools I would have fixed it myself . 

On Tuesday I took away the stones that covered the drain cover . But the two hooks to lift the cover had rusted away so I checked my policy and it’s covered . 

Discussed with fellowship friends and Dave B could come around and help Os with flexible rods and Barbara mentioned that she uses her emergency cover regularly. 

The guy from the emergency cover was absolutely useless . And in the end he wanted to send out excavation team to dig the manhole up . Sheila’s told i need to lift cover so they can fix blockage . If I could do that I could fix blockage myself !!!! 


Called DynoRod he lifted the drain cover and confirmed blockage . Yuk . Now called Thames water . 





Finally on Sunday 28 May 1900 Thames Water arrived . The blockage was difficult to move with rods from Graham’s . It was clear at number one Victoria Close so they could jet it. 

This is what a clear drain looks like .

Prefer the ones at Palma airport to Heathrow   Im sitting    at London Heathrow airport noticing the signage .  I’m wondering if there should be an international standard for arrivals and departures signs ?  Then again I do like the slight differences between countries.  In Spain the departures has half line to the left showing leaving the ground and the arrivals sign has half line to the right showing an approach to the ground.  In Heathrow the ground line is a continuous line .  Both arrivals signs have wheels shown on the arrivals plane .  However the Heathrow arrivals sign is a horizontal plane and the Spanish arr...
