Clocks sprung forward, the weather sprung back, tipping it down, blowing a hoolie and cold, could it be Easter is coming, all the campers are getting excited at pitching in the rain etc. I want to blast about in the B+. Looks like a day in the cave.

Aye, Manchester and the surrounding area have been properly deluged, lots of river banks burst and the Manchester ship canal (which is as wide as the Thames in places) is testing its limits.
Cumbria has been walloped again and it looks to be working it's way south across Staffordshire and Derbyshire at the moment.
nothing at all here in sunny barnsley....
Very wet and windy down here, Southerly and very mild though.
Well from my nice comfy seat in the office it looks like a summers day outside, not a cloud in sight. Appearances are of course deceptive and the surrounding areas seem to have been hit badly yesterday. For those of you that are interested in this sort of chaos here are some links.
Met office says thats it for the next few days at least so hopefully HMG will pull its collective finger out and do something for those affected by the floods. I think the scariest ones are the little footbridge with the burning gas main and the collapsed 200 year old pub.
Wow! Batten down the hatches, my Palm trees are bent almost horizontal this morning. Just starting to rain heavy as well. Very high tides mean the rivers can't dump the water. Take care all.
Party Political Broadcast on behalf of the Melos Party martin??? Leave the EU?? I hope not. Plant more trees thats the answer, do you know how water a tree drinks and one tree keeps 4 humans alive every day. Easy answer is build a big dome over the UK.
No trains again, sea wall trouble Martin, you know where. Bring your bucket and spade :-))
wind has dropped, now torrential rain, big flashes of lightening
I was on the Garage roof at 3 am this morning, extreamly strong winds started to rip off the ridge sheets. I was like a commando on my belly, battery screw diver in one hand and trying to wrestle the metal sheets in the other. Now got to wait to Jan 7 before I can get replacements, I suppose it cold have been worse. At least I have no chance of flooding.
Its like it never happened here now, just about to walk around my boundary's to see whats what, bloody deer have been in overnight, left their calling card everywhere :-))
Skanky things, live in the woods nearby, always foraging about, there's more meat on posh spice !
only if i could be part of the spit....martin......lol
