Water companies are borrowing £10billion to fix the sewage problems! Yes, it will be paid for by increasing water bills and yes, they could have fixed the problems already if they hadn’t paid £72bn to shareholders, but… no, that’s all I’ve got. #WaterCompanies #SewageScandal

Tomorrow, I hope to highlight the crew of P/O Otley. His rear (originally front) gunner was Fred Tees, the only survivor, when the aircraft crashed. Fred grew up just yards from my family home....he never really recovered. dambustersblog.com/2015/03/2…
