    So strange Jem - you and your colleagues have a way of being mates with us, as you speak to us as mates, which makes your vids so appealing to watch and listen to. It is just like seeing lads we know at work... But of course you do not know us, but we all feel we know you, because you all have a very friendly way of speaking.

    The local councils should make it a requirement that manholes have permanent metal markings near the top to show direction of outflow pipes. After all, drain unblockers don't get called out when the drain is empty and easy to see what's going on down below. Great job as always getting that unblocked 👍😎

    What size jetter hose are you using? 3/8” or 1/2”? I live in the United States, they charge a arm and a leg to hydro jet your sewer line out. 1,750 - 2,000 usd to do it. I made my own hydro jetter out of a 3500 psi pressure washer and 3/8” x 100’ hose. I use a root ranger double nozzle to cut out the roots. I have been told a warthog nozzle is more effective. They are very expensive. It does the job that’s for sure. Cheers!

    never mind the smell, I can taste it, when I lifted a manhole cover, it looked like some one had filled it up with lasagna, with todd in the hole.
    back ain the 70's I was down a manhole 30 feet deep, and after a while, when I look up, the the top of the manhole looked like the size of a stamp, and it was spinning around, and when I toild my mate up the top, he said " get out " your getting gassed, so I did. the next week it got block again, but I was on holiday, so another man got half way down, got gassed, and fell to the bottom, he was rescued by the fire brigade, and had a broken leg, etc.
    I wash the Lockfast Drain Rods every time I use them, with hot water and soda crystals.
