Explanation:
Same answer as I gave to Jandrew on 9 March. :)
Establishment of relief boreholes (bleeding wells).
Found this in my Translation Memory, but a colleague did the research, so I can't give you more details. Hope it helps, anyway.

Asker: Thanks Gitte ... I'm not entirely convinced though. I can't seem to find any references on Google that convince me. I'll wait and see if there are any other suggestions before accepting 'bleeding well'
