@TheMrChugger Yes just seen the massive hole they have dug near the corner of Uttox Old Road.

I worked at the STW call centre over five years ago. Their lousy induction video claimed that they were 'massively investing' in improving Derby's drainage system to avoid repeats of the floods at the turn of the century. Investment? My back side! I left after just 6 weeks I hated it that much.

typical.. i bet 7 trent blame too much traffic, the heat of the sun, the coldness of the water, the people who were looking in its direction for the leak not the fact they are tight arse bstrds who refuse to spend any of the profits they make on upgrading the ancient system of pipes they still think can cope with the ever increasing demand placed on them. i hope it cost them 1,000s and they get 1,000s in fines :)

[comedyhunter]
