The Works, Manchester - Aug 2012

[PaulPowers]

I have no idea why I haven't done the works before, I've travelled further for a whole lot less!

Crossing the Irk went without incident and entry was a walk in, which made a pleasant change.
It wasn't until I found myself thigh deep in what barely passes for water that I discovered a hole in my wadorz.

Brick porn

The Drain Fairy, protecting all those who pass through the works

Culverts are clean it's just sewers and the overflows like this that contain poo
