Unfortunately some will wear as a badge of honour.

Not good, we need a sad button to. Flooding is can be pretty nasty.

Weā€™ve gone from fire to flooding within 2 weeks but no one is complaining.

We seriously need rain. None for over a month and last year driest on record where we are.

Last weekends storm affected mostly the region around the Eng/Welsh border & the River Severn, the previous weekend storm preloaded the River Severn but the bad flooding was further north on other small river systems & steep valleys that run water off the Peaks & Pennines (hills)
Iā€™m on the Thame (a tributary of the Thames), we missed a big rain dump, although it was bad enough.

This was my town the previous weekend, I live in the northern area on the edge of the Pennines. I live 100m up the hill above this luckily for me.

Has it all subsided

Yep, that was the weekend (I was in London with my family), the water was down by Monday. I spent Tuesday in a local business just behind the sports centre in that picture helping them clean up, they were producing cheese again by the end of the week.

We drove up and back to Brisbane in the last 15 days thereā€™s rivers running that hadnā€™t for years. The old cow cockies were all dancing in the pubs.

I was wondering is Naim and @Richard.Dane would allow us to have an off topic thread :eyes: :thinking: :smiley:

Thats on the edge, MPW! I envy your Philips CD960 if my wife would allow ā€¦

If you have a suggestion for a cheaper model :slight_smile:

dont tell her its a CD960 :grin:

being on the edge and sometimes falling off it was an Aquarian trait - i read somewhere ā€¦ :thinking:

Do you mean a thread that is off topic, or a thread called ā€œOff topicā€, that is then on topic?
