Last night's storm

<< < (2/2)

awemawson:
Well our power went off just after midnight, and came back just after 10 am this morning. Major amounts of rain, and our fields are pretty well flooded, with all the sheep huddled at one end where it is marginally higher. River Brede is still flowing over it's banks, through the next farms field and then onwards through our orchard. Not too much damage as far as I can tell. Several fencing panels now horizontal in the vegetable plot. Our private sewage system of course wasn't running for ten hours so wasn't pumping. When the power came back it's level  alarm was honking and the pump tripped out it's rcd  :bang:  Got it sorted now - just as well as we have visitors in the cottages over Christmas, and our family en masse - too many to cross you legs for long  :lol:

Hope everyone else is ok

Andrew
