Needless to say I've been picking up lots of horror stories from the Syon estate, which has suffered the full impact of the flood caused by a fractured water pipe.
Several people I know have been decanted to nearby hotels and word is that some dwellings will be uninhabitable for quite a few months.
Let's hope all the parties and agencies responsible for dealing with the situation are on top of their game and that normality can be restored in the quickest possible time and with the minimum hardship to local residents.
