More flooding!
Posted by Chris @ 11:52 am
Well, last week we had some flooding, and this week we've had even worse flooding. I think I said in my last post “Luckily for us the flood plain extends away from our house” - hmm. Luckily it isn't as bad as the photos make out, whilst we did have 6 inches around the back, it didn't come into the house, but that didn't stop me having a pretty sleepless night. We didn't get home until 11, but enormous thanks goes to Ben and Beck for taking us in for the evening, feeding us, and finding us a route home in their car. The pictures show the flood waters at the back of our house, and also in Hillsbrough when we went for a little walk around. That was quite scary!
Thankfully all we have left is a load of sludge, which I've captured in this nice little video, and after an hour and half with a hosepipe and brush things are looking much better. Lets just hope it doesn't rain much more this June!

I know, but that is less noticeable because it is in the side nav, and less noticeable than a blog post that will show up in everyone's rss reader!This comment posted by Chris

...and less noticeable than a blog post that will show up in everyone's rss reader!The irony being that this very conversation is showing in my RSS reader... ;-)

Indeed, but you have to be proper clued up to have the comments feed in your rss reader, so I'm not overly bothered about this! Anyway, the day of reckoning is nearly here now...This comment posted by Chris
