    I am still wandering around on the opposite side of the river from where i live,..just to get a better view of the river rising and the land becoming less and less.

              @Victoria ,..
              Thankfully it didn't rain today,..i was wishing it went your direction :).

              A huge number of swans in the area just now but alas i noticed the Swallows getting together for their long journey to a warmer climate,..Africa i think.

              The Lifeboat had to rescue the Tourist Boat on the left,..its actually in a field and way off the navigation pole nearest to the rescue crew,..i admit its difficult to navigate in the flood water but one is supposed to keep inside the poles not outside them.

              The small metal bridge i often post an image of is right where the red arrow is pointing.
