Prongs Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Ok then! I took a trip down the town today (it was still raining so I'm a little bit wet) and was delighted to see that all we have left is puddles! This is about all we have left: Not much is it?

Mrs Frugal Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Wow, I bet it's left a trail of destruction though people's homes and businesses though. Isn't it amazing how quickly it recedes and yet the damage takes so long to recover from . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prongs Posted July 23, 2007 Author Share Posted July 23, 2007 Yeah, I forgot to put about that! I walked through the high street as well as passed various homes and theirs carpets being thrown out and all sorts. One man was on the phone saying it had been the worst weekend of his life! It was actually quite upsetting to listen to! Alot of businesses have been wrecked; there were boxes piled outside of them because they'd been destroyed by the flood.

Cinnamon Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 We are still having problems here in Oxfordshire. I just went out for a drive (& a nose!) & saw some really devastating flooding. The Thames has burst its banks just a mile or so from my village, although we are in no danger as we are very high up. I think evaquations are about to start for some............. And its still raining too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prongs Posted July 23, 2007 Author Share Posted July 23, 2007 We can't win, can we? Yes, I went for a nose as well. ;] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nina Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Checked out the news this morning and it all seems so bizarre. Yes, we have had alot of rain in Essex but my garden isn't even waterlogged and I am still having to water my plants in pots/baskets. Considering the severity of the damage around the country, its seems unreal. My heart goes out to any of you that are caught in the midst of this.
