    The floods are to the North of here in the Vale of Evesham,only water running off the Cotswold Hills cause us problems as it did a few years ago.

    We're in the East Midlands, living near two canals and the River Erewash means there's been some flooding, fortunately we live at the top of the hill so all's well for us. Been out into Derbyshire today and many fields are flooded, certainly vegetables will be very expensive this winter.

    Doncaster has been hit very hard and no-one seems to be helping them, this is sad, we have friends living there.

    Hi miraflores

    I was in Coggeshall (Essex) two weeks ago and the heavens opened. When we drove back the water was lapping over the kerbs. We got ten miles down the road and it hadn't even been raining. :eek:

    now, changing subject: I was just noticing how the tune on the background of the clip works so exceptionally well played in fast speed rather than the original version, which is so slow that by the time you get to the following word, you forgot the first one...
