Somebody turned-up from Affinity this morning and had a look at the SC enclosure. They may have even taken a water sample.

The woman I spoke to yesterday told me that if there was no Chlorine in this sample then it was likely it was groundwater.

 

Interesting, how in the space of four days, the water in the trench changed opacity from cloudy:-

(This picture taken on the afternoon of the day before (11/03/2016) they filled-in the trench (12/03/2016).

 

Hopefully, on the way to getting this finally resolved this now.

You realise that if they fix the water, your electric or telephone will stop working??##It is how the world works.

 

If they hadnt fixed my phone line, my time machine would still be working, and I wouldnt be stuck here.

No, No, . . No, No, No, No . . No, No No No, . . No,No, . No No. . No. . . . . . . ah ! 

 

Surely no,  Not a "Chinese premier's  holiday", please.

 

 And just  after I've just squeezed an extra 2Mb/sec out of my broadband connection by fitting CAT 5 on the run between the Home Hub 5 and the master socket. 

 

There's a slight variation on that round here. No input from other privatised former public utilities required.

 

If the BT phones and broadband suffer a temporary transmissious interruptous at this QTH  you can guarantee that within a couple of days a fulsome envelope from Beardie's marketing  colleagues will slip seamlessly  through the letterbox - bless 'em. They must have felled the equivalent of a small copse of trees doing unsolicited mailings to me over the last 6 years - regular as clockwork, once every three months.

 

Either that or the whole IT system  gets a double whammy from microwave radiations  from certain minimally marked low altitude overflying aircraft <cough>.

 

Its funny though, isn't it, that every  written communication I get from the Water company is usually accompanied with a little written screed telling me how important it is that people in Third World countries have access to a supply of pure water . . . . and, often, this includes an invitation to the "Gap year" offspring of middle class families to assist in this endeavour by volunteering for a bit of VSO or similar.

 

Whereas, over here . . . . . . . we are all incalculated, at least at the moment,  with the Souithern Cross  version of  "You'll get what you're given".

 

And what's more, I'm allergic to paper bags, am antipathetic to nasal accents and believe Harrogate is over-rated.
