Floods!

What a day!


It hasn't stopped raining for a few days now and Greenock is badly affected by flooding.  Hubby couldn't get to work and Son#2 who only works in the next town couldn't get there either because the roads and pavements are flooded!

Schools have been closed, trains from Glasgow are stopping at Port Glasgow because the line is flooded at Greenock, and many shops are shut too!

And ............ its still raining!

Anyone got a spare canoe?

Love, Liz

Liz,
Sorry to hear your having bad weather. We have it almost the same. It has been raining here 3 days and should rain one more. We don't flood too bad though. We live in the flat prairie. it sure is soggy though! Hope your weather gets better soon.

Oh blimey that does sound awful. I hope your house is on higher ground?

The weather here today is just grey & very windy - the 3 leaves that were left on the trees have gone and those on the ground are swirling around - for once I'm happy to be confined to indoors!

Rain back on here this evening - it is the high tides that are causing problems too. I heard on the radio about how bad you were getting it over there. Hope you manage to stay dry and cosy. xx

Mi dispiace Liz, è brutto quando
continua a piovere, fa disastri.
E' successo anche qui, in Italia.
Ma ora c'è sempre il sole.
Buon sole anche a voi
