MILK?!?!? CROUCH END MYSTERY

Dianne asked "Does anyone know why the drain under the clocktower on the Waitrose side is always overflowing with MILK?!?!? CROUCH END MYSTERY" and now she has asked I want to know the answer. This dribble of white stuff has been there on the Haelan Centre side of the Clock Tower for at least a week.

Is it milk? Might it be emulsion paint? If its a spill why hasn't the rain cleared it away? Is there a source of mysterious white stuff inside the tower? Is it the milk of human kindness? Is it Riley's left over vanilla sorbet? I thought it was someone's shopping that hadn't quite made it home.

Does it have anything to do with a dinosaur or Brian the missing pet?

Its bloody grim whatever it is. Someone needs to get in there and give it a sniff. I figure if it were milk it would be surrounded by hungry kittens?

Maybe if I report it to Love Clean London  it will get to Veolia who will report it to Haringey who will . . . . ?

In the normal course of events I would by now be complaining that this drain is still not clear despite my report - the enamel like surface which had formed is now dissolving in the rainwater - but events have not been normal.

It looks like wood glue to me.

The rainwater and gunk suspension looked peculiarly unattractive today.
