Had a text at 07.30 from Deputy at a school, leak..... Thought it was going to be the asbestos lagged 4" iron in voids as it's getting on a bit. ..... No it was the lead before the meter. What's that u say lead on drinking water in a school? Surely not?

Look at the cut in it though, that's been dragged over a nail.
