A load of crap!!!!!A national angling centre for Scotland has been flooded with sewage for the third time in as many months leaving little time for a clear-up before the building is due to open to the public.
The state-of-the-art Scottish Angling Centre at The Pier, Kinross, was saturated as raw sewage poured up through the toilets.
Floor coverings had to be removed and the building dehumidified after a similar incident back in the autumn, but two repetitions of the problem have left the owners of the complex frustrated.
"We started getting the flooding coming up through the drains into the centre of the building and everything is again soaking with sewage," Jamie Montgomery of site owners Kinross estates told the Perthshire Advertiser.
"Now we will have to bring in industrial cleaners to dry and check the buildings' floors and joists, and disinfect everything - and the bill will be going to Scottish Water."
A spokesman for Scottish Water, Peter Darbyshire, told the Press Association that the company had apologised for the incident and was doing everything possible to stop the flooding occurring again.
Scottish Angler's National Association president Mr Ron Picken told the Perthshire Advertiser that the situation was "ridiculous" and pointed out that, if it happened again, the raw sewage could threaten a protected waterfowl site in Loch Levan
