Source seems to be works outside yassar h. Flood from there upwards to blend. Wouldn't drive or walk in that area for a bit.

We were wondering why the traffic on our road was worse than ever and why our water pressure was really bad.  It didnt click that the two were connected!

Funniest thing I saw in the "flood" was a red sports car deliberately speed up as it turned from Green Lanes into, I think, Warham Rd. There is a moral to the story.

This is what I could from the back of the top deck of the 29. The car drives at speed and sends the dirty water over people on the pavement, and soaks a few. They first seem angry.

Then I think I see them laughing, and then people at the front of the bus burst out laughing, as they get level to the road the car had turned into.

The driver had managed to misjudge the turning, and ripped off part of the car. Poetic justice.
