Overflow pipe leaking black water intermittently

Hi All
I would appreciate any ideas on a problem we have with our plumbing. An overflow pipe outside our house (we have two - pipes, not houses) is leaking black water. It's doing this intermittently. My husband noticed it a couple of weeks ago and we have not noticed it since, but it happened just now. A little dribble, which lasted about two minutes and has stopped. I don't know if this is related or not, but we have to bleed the radiators frequently. Does anyone have any ideas about what this might be? I do know a good plumber and will call him if it turns out that it might be serious, but though I would ask on here first.
Thanks in advance to anyone that can help!

Hi
Call your plumber (as long as he is good with c/h systems) as you have an over flow from the c/h expansion tank. If he can't tell you find someone else.
