Brilliant!
Unfortunately, they've left their £14 billion of debt for everyone else to deal with :-|

Aren’t they still their usual?. Looking into a hole in the groundfilling with water and wondering what to do next. Hoping someone else will sort if for them

Looks like Thames aren't alone, reports are that Southern, Yorkshire, SES(?) and Portsmouth are also in difficulties.

When all these industries went public after being denationalised water was the one I wouldn't even contemplate because such a huge investment was needed. May be I should have bought shares, mde a fortune then ditched them a few years ago.
