In the early hours of Sunday morning, a burst water main affected residents in Kingston, Merton, Wimbledon and Surbiton. Why did it have to happen on one of the warmest days of the year? Sod's Law, I guess.
The local Guardian reporters were all over this incident. It'll certainly make a change when reading the letters page where local residents usually moan about the shabby refuse collection service or the recent youth stabbings.
