The house is sodden. Everything was new from the last episode. Knacked now.
Looks like we will be at hotel in law again. The Son Inn.
So damn depressing to be dependent on others.

I cannot think of anything worth saying other than I'm really sorry
that you're going through it again. My problems with the wet here are
miniscule compared to yours. I hope your insurers will cough up again.

It rained exceptionally heavy here last night. Eased of for a while but
very heavy again this morning, now it is back to fairly light rain.
Crossing the river Trent I see it has burst it's banks, so some people
downstream are bound to be flooded. I accept that the rain has been
exceptional but the bl**dy authorities allowing build on the flood
plains guarantee flooding. Where we live the water has been running off
the paviour drive in sheets, but fortunately we are on the side of a
small valley, so no chance of flooding. I guess the plants must be near
drowning though!
