Day 3 of Flood.wmv

After the last video we had a further 36 hours of rain and in the middle of the night the river invaded the village, it missed the family's house by a matter of centimetres but the local shop and the bar have been badly damaged as have many of the villagers houses. We photographed this at about 10 in the morning when the waters had receeded but the mess is obvious. Today, as I write, the river has gone down quite a lot but we have a gale blowing now which is knocking all the plants to bits, and my washing has been on and off the line now for days!!!!!

We are off to a local restaurant tomorrow for our lunch club so hopefully I will have more enjoyable matters to report.

C'est la vie
