Mopping Up

Cleaning up today in Brighouse following yesterdays flooding after days of constant rain,
the water was over this car park wall last night the river Calder is just on the other side,
2,000 homes where flooded in Calderdale with thousands more in Cumbria, Lancashire & Yorkshire, fortunately I live on a hill no danger for me but many roads are closed.
We are celebrating an inch of rain which brought us some relief from the hot, dry weather we've been experiencing. However Australian news services have been showing the flooding in northern England and I wondered how all my 365 friends in that area were holding up. Pleased to hear you are high if not dry.

I phoned my sister a couple of days ago and heard how bad the weather was in the UK.
