The last sewer blockage and overflow in Maulden was reportedly due to 'FOG' - that is 'Fats, Oils and Grease' in the short-hand terminology. This next blockage, in the same place, was apparently due to baby wipes being flushed down the toilet - not good. And the allotment holder was apparently most unhappy with his vegetable patch being flooded with raw sewage yet again .... only just recovering from the last time.
Sewers are so convenient and useful .... but you can take 'flush and forget' too far ......
