Drains again

The bridge was semi-flooded all last week because of the – still – blocked drains. Then yesterday they came to clear them out, together with the ones up the hill towards the main road.

They did not bother to clean out the ones in our lane, several of which are blocked right up to the grid, & which also cause large pools of surface water to gather

You cannot blame global warming for local flooding when you cannot even get the basic housekeeping right
