The water board admitted it was down to them, and sent some nice men round with some spades to have a bit of a dig. They then sent for some more men with bigger spades, and, well, this is what happenned :
These were taken a week ago after their first bit of digging :

And here's an action shot taken on Saturday :

All in all a bit of a nightmare. The road is now closed until they finish, and they've no idea when that will be. Still, the good news is that the car was ok, and sailed through it's MOT last week.
