> I’m not sure if you can see the extent of the flooding but every time it rains heavily we are flooded to the point we cannot get to our cars and you cannot walk down path. I’ve been trying for over three years to get the drain cleared. It’s blocked, bit it in the actual hole bit further up. Please can you can someone to see where it’s blocked and clear it. It’s been three years and this is probably my 10th attempt. I can’t believe it cannot be sorted.
