Good to hear it  :thumbup:

There's some pics of flooding in Whitley Bay on the ITV news site .. not good  :(

My mate was flooded in Sheffield 2006 [?] ish ..

Stink was vile, wet dog, pond stink and sewage ..

Poor bugger .. still can't get any insurance, so can't sell or owt ..

The "water cooler" forum seems pretty appropriate for this!

Please send some of that wet over 'ere. 102° F today, hotter tomorrow (can't do the centigrade thing...). And my central air is on the fritz, as usual! Only breaks when it's real cold or real hot!

Not as exciting as when a JU88 attacked the bridges and hit Spillers which is now the Baltic.

No one was killed or anything really exciting this time. My daughter in law took over 5 hours to get home from South Shields to Newcastle and nearly ran out of petrol. My bird bath overflowed. Saved me having to wash the windows.
Nothing really! Yawns a bit- bye-ee.  :coffee:
