Please be aware that your names & addresses have been mistakenly divulged/leaked by Southern Water.

The word "Doh" springs to mind!

Don't shoot the messenger, I don't live in Portsmouth, no connection to Southern Water, but just wanted to warn people.

Best regards,

Bart

  • Its all water under the bridge now, anyway
  • Please stop it. I'm laughing so much that the tears pouring down.
  • To be fair, down here in southern Hampshire, we do deal with two different water companies.

    Portsmouth Water only supply fresh water whilst
    Southern Water just take the p................previously used water away again!

    What?

    Oh I think I know what you were thinking!

    But come on, I have to keep it clean, it's before the watershed ;)

    The fridge is empty, the walls are damp, there's no hot water
