Transcript

00:00Okay Adam, so you've been affected by the flood today, the burst water main on Stafford

00:12Road.

00:13Just explain what happened and what time you found out.

00:15It was about 4.30 this morning, we got a knock on the door and it was the fireman and we

00:19looked out and we thought, what the hell's going on?

00:23And literally, flood everywhere, the drivers flooded, the back garden, the garage was all

00:28flooded.

00:29How deep was it roughly?

00:32Probably top of ankle, just before that door there, it was quite deep, so like I say it's

00:37affected all the stuff in the garage, all the girls football equipment, because we were

00:41on a local girls football team, so all the girls equipment's been damaged.

00:46Has it?

00:47So all that's got to be replaced?

00:48Yeah.

00:49Oh what a shame.

00:50Goodness me.

00:51So yeah, you say when it happened you thought it was kids messing around?

00:54Yeah, that's it.

00:56Obviously at 4.30 in the morning you think, what silly sod's going on here?

01:01So yeah, we knocked open the door and it was the fireman just saying, you've got a flood,

01:05and I was like, I just couldn't believe it.

01:07But hopefully they're getting on with fixing it now.

01:09Yeah, they're fixing it now.

01:10Has it ever happened before for you?

01:11No, no, not happened before, but they said it would last all week, apparently, by the

01:16time they fix it.

01:17Really?

01:18Yeah, so obviously we've got to drive to repair it as well, because it's just full of mud

01:22and dirt and rain water, so it's just a case of.

01:25Really?

01:26Repair it all.

01:27That's it.

01:28Crack on.

01:29Thanks for your time anyway.

01:30Yeah, no problem at all, thank you.
