Pooet Looreate

A rare sortie by the Grumpy Bursar into the world of culture. My entry for Chalk Stream Poet Laureate:

Ode to the Haslingfield Waste Water Treatment Plant

The bounders at Anglian Water

Have done what they really not oughter

Spilling four months of wee

Defiling the poor Rhee

And affronting a King’s College porter.

Inspired by the above’s regulatory returns for 2023:  172 spills for 2,935 hours (34% of the year).
