Gas works burnt a hole through my shoe!

I've never tried to get compensation for something like this but just now seems to be a great time to dip your toe in.

What a lot of hot air

Shoely you did some sole searching after the workman spoke to you like that and you socked him one?

go to the centrica HQ in Windsor and throw super heated faeces at their windows.

Sometimes I wonder how OCUK members manage to make it through the day without dying.

May your sole burn in heel too.

can we get a picture of the shoe? it all sounds highly unlikely unless you were walking on a bed of hot coal

Learn to take sole responsibility for your actions.

StoutMeister · 21 Aug 2015 at 14:07

OP, you have no sole.

If it wasn't signposted then you should have stood in it long enough to suffer injury

Just think of the ££££

Hot enough to burn through a shoe and a sock merely by walking on it? If it was that hot, surely you'd have a serious burn on your foot.

/edit - And why only one shoe and not the other?

I reckon his shoe already had a hole and a bit of melted tarmac managed to work it's way inside.

op screamed like a little girl and now seeks compensation
