PART OF Tameside was left looking like a winter wonderland after an apparent leak into the River Tame.
For suds coated a major road between Dukinfield and Stalybridge.
People driving along and working on Park Road were left wondering what season it was as the landscape was left white.
Huge deposits blew through the air after what appears to be a substance entering the water, causing the foam.
An Environment Agency Spokesperson said:
“We would like to thank members of the public who reported the presence of foam in Dukinfield around the River Tame in Tameside.
“Environment Agency officers are currently out on site investigating the source and if there are any possible environmental impacts.
Suds are floating through the air and covering the road on Park Road
Sud’s Law.
I heard that Mr Creosote was having his annual bath.
Doesn’t take a genius to figure out what caused this. Fairy liquid obviously. Someone must have poured a few bottles in somewhere like a waterfall where it gets bubbled up good style. Maybe someone has an industrial size container of detergent and they used that. Certainly a tiny bit of fairy in the sink and it’s hard to wash all the bubbles away, 25 liters of the stuff and you’d imagine this would be the effect. That’s my guess anyways.
