Floods

Very good.

The Ouse floods every year, even in the 1940s when I was *kid.
Most of the area that flooded then had no housing on it. Today it has.

Isn't it about time a hovercraft or two was used in floods? There are many
in the country, military, sport and commercial, yet when there's flooding,
not one to be seen.

Have you never seen one working? The damage it would do in an urban
area would be immense.
