We are both grateful that we have the house back to normal
since the flood in July. Since then we have been at serious risk of being
flooded again on three separate occasions - today included. I have one of these
long telescopic rods normally used for cleaning windows and the like. It came
in very handy this morning following continuous rain over several days when I
used it to hook free the rubbish that was obstructing the flow of the brook
outside the house. The water level dropped immediately.
As I write this it is dark and early evening, the rain is
still falling relentlessly and the big worry is that the house may flood again
during the night. We'll just have to cross our fingers and hope it doesn't. I
hate water, I have even taken to omitting the filthy stuff from my glass of
scotch in the evening. Filthy? Think ducks and fish!
We always look forward to Christmas and this year is no
exception - if you are reading this (of course they are reading it dope!) a
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
