A family were left to live with a river of human faeces in their back garden for a week before it was cleared up.
A relatively simple job to clear a blocked sewage pipe turned into a seven day ordeal for Javed Rafiq and his family, who live in Tolworth Rise North.
Even now, the lingering stench of sewage is such that he cannot open windows or go into the garden to hang out washing. Thames Water has since apologised to the family for the "unacceptable" amount of time it took to clear the blockage.
The sewer which serves a number of homes along the road was finally fixed on Friday, January 23.
