sorry for everyone whos having such a difficult time hope the rain bu**ers off t the sea where it can cause no more problems..everyone, take care..
I know it's twee but, if there's anything we can do, let us know ..if it's physically possible, we'll be there,
also, is there any sort of fund being set up for the victims, I know how it is not to have insurance, when the kids were small, that was the last thing we thought about, after food and clothes  :)

It came over the flood barrier later that night, all the surrounding fields were like lakes  :(

I'm not brave MM........there were lots of police and fire crews there as well

I had to get the photo............as I hope to God it something I'll never see again  ;)
