The quiet village of Ford woke up this morning to find a twenty five foot jet of mains water being pumped high into the sky. The water pressure is so great in this part of Buckinghamshire, that when a water mains bursts, it produces a quite spectacular display. The mains has burst twice in the last 6 months, having previously burst a few months earlier in the same village. In fact, I could see this unusual water feature from a neighbouring village two miles away. Repairmen were on the scene within the hour to fix the leak.
