Extreme Drain Cleaning.

Its not often a blip subject arrives at your door but this morning the local council FINALLY decided to do something about the drain, which floods every time there is heavy rain.As you can imagine it has been flooding regularly for most of December.

It appears that the roots of the sycamore have invaded the drain system and blocked it. The group of council workers in the blip are struggling to find just how far it has penetrated. They have hauled out a rootball which is at least two foot across which wad blocking the drain entrance but there is still a lot of the root system left in the drain.
I'l keep you informed as the job progresses.
