My World Saturday



This is what we faced on Saturday morning, you would think we had a lot of heavy rain but no this was a blocked sewer, was bubbling up through the manhole covers


 It had been like this since Friday


In the end it was cleaned up and drained away. the Cause was a rag and fat blocking the pipe furter down
Hope you had a better weekend. Taking part in Our World Tuesday

  1. Must have been a whole lot of fat to block a sewer!

  2. Not a fun way to start a day! Looks fairly clean for a sewer and nice reflections from the water. We had our sewer and water issues last year, but no flooding. Utility folks restored service quick with pumps and above ground pipe (http://lewsotherpics.blogspot.com/2014/02/our-wolrd-sinking.html).

  4. That can be difficult! Hope it is back to normal now.

  5. The fatbergs are just getting bigger and bigger. One day the whole of the sewage system is going to come to a standstill. It doesn't bear thinking about.
