Default Kitchen sink with no overflow?

I am looking to buy a cheap and cheerful sink for a flat that I am planning
to rent out.

This one http://www.screwfix.com/app/sfd/cat/...68286&id=91782
caught my eye.

Only thing is that I cannot see any overflow. Can this be right, or am I
missing anything?

TIA.

If you look at the bigger picture you will see in the centre of the
sink edge of the draining board, what looks like a smudge this is the
drain for the draining board and the overflow for the sink.

If you are thinking of going away leaving the tap running just make
sure it is only running slowly!

The overflow is prolly on the drainer board unless it is on the side you
cant see

Although must admit noticed Ikea had a round bowl and drainer for about the
same money, maybe they would have a simple sink cheaper

Thanks, hat was exactly my concern. It is going into a flat that I intent
to let, and with a waste that runs almost 3m, with a very minimal drop I am
a little concern about flooding the flat below.
