>>26949 Your not wrong. I lived my first 22 years in north Bucks and it used to feel fairly distant from London, but as Milton Keynes grew suddenly London was very close. Herefordshire now is like Bucks was when I was a little kid :D

>>26940 Anywhere south of Bedford we refer to as London overspill.

I've never seen a sinkhole here. Probably because the soil is too hard (dense). I'll bet further north where the soil is mostly sand it happens a bit more.

Did they found out if it was due to rainwater or a leaking sewer pipe, or just a natural phenomenon?

When I was a kid I don't ever remember these things. They've now become commonplace with whole houses sinking away. Maybe we should stop washing our hair and drinking water.
