And who works in that white building in the middle of that shot? Meade does! And when has Meade been told to go back into work after being shepherded out at 10.10 today? Wednesday! Yeepiddlinghaaaaa! I now worship Cloacina, the Roman goddess of drains.
An added bonus is that the sewage entering the building is going down to our HR department. I don't entirely know why, but HR departments seem to deserve it, in my mind.

Off to the park soon to burn and then to the cinema.
What would you do if you had to flee your workplace for the rest of today and tomorrow thanks to gaggles of poop?

I'd see if you can push it to Thursday, looks like tomorrow and Wednesday are going to be BAKING.

Hahah, brilliant quote:

"You could see water gushing and bubbling like there was a fountain," he said. "There was a whirlpool where they must have opened up a drain, and all the water was draining away like a bathtub. It was crazy."It was from pavement to pavement, and at some points it was overlapping the pavement like a river bursting its banks."

shocking scenes. In other news, 2000 people dead in landslide.

holy shit...

be surprised if you're allowed back in to the office on Wednesday if there's raw sewage in the basement/lower ground floors.

Top tomato plants at a sewage treatment plant near you!

Being an employee of a water company you can guess my day has been slightly more busy

Raw Sewage, you just wait until the council drain sniffers get a load of that .... You'll be off until next Monday .... at least! (Or relocated)!!

Same shit different day. Or should that be different shit every day.

We have emergency offices somewhere in Uxbridge, or summink. Ideally a couple of days off will have Paul Reids Sock sort it and prevent me from having to cycle 2 hours and 11 minutes to get there, according to googlemaps.
It's not the first time we've struck by such a turdami. At a presentation a few years ago an experienced member of staff spoke of a similar incident 25 years ago. He sat down after telling us about moving all the soggy files and ordering new equipment and desks, before standing once more to utter the words "the walls were coated with excrement". I liked that guy before he retired. He said meeeeeeeeeeeeeeehhhhhhhhh a lot and swept leftover mince pies into a carrier bag at our Christmas do's to consume at a later date.

Shit flowing into HR would be something of a turnaround as far as I am concerned.
