Just got sent this, as I work quite close to where it happened. Someone who was there mailed round some pictures, with the quote:

This is the A320 this morning near the Sands glad I wasn’t in this car.



This is what happens when the a water main bursts under your car. The brown stuff is Poo Sad

I'd have thunk it was mud seeing as a large piece of verge has disappered into the crater.

Article said it was water main. Chap that was there said it was shit. Could be both, this is Woking that we're talking about.

Gah I got stuck in the traffic on the way in and I'm going to get stuck in it on the way home (I work just down the road from there).

I live just up the road from here, it was a burst water main, it happened between the six crossroads roundabout and the Mclaren technology centre.

The irony is that they dug up that same bit of road about 2 years ago to replace a burst water main!! Rolling Eyes

They're always digging up everything round there. Have you seen the state of Shores Road?

McLaren are often up and down the local streets in their MP4-12Cs - imagine one of them ended up in the hole. Pricey.

EDIT: Can you imagine going down that on your bike? Shocked

Hyeh - I bitch about the ridge of scar tissue down Shores Road but marginally less problematic than that hole I suppose.

I'm on Monument Road, just by the canal. Or at least I am when I can get around that smegging roundabout.

Yeah, steer clear of the Six Crossroads today unless you can fly. It's a car park.

There were no Frazzles in the newsagent in Woking Sad Apparently their delivery lorry couldn't get through. Do you think it might be Avernus? I guess those crazy Romans were wrong about where it was...
