May I respectfully suggest to the man upstairs that in future he spreads the rain out.....rather than sending a year's worth in 2 weeks!!
And my 'pass the book' here.......ends tonight......so be quick....it's a fantastic book.

Drought!!
Apparently the South East UK is suffering drought conditions......3 weeks ago we had a hosepipe ban imposed.......the man upstairs obviously took note.....and decided to make hosepipes redundant.....it has rained every day for the past 2 weeks......and when I say rained.......I mean RAINED .....frequently torrential rain......and now many people are flooded.......and need fire engines and water pumps, not hosepipes.

We've had drizzle, light rain, heavy rain, a thunder storm and hailstones today and we are in an area under hosepipe ban as well! If my husband says 'well, the gardens need it' once more .....!
Ditto what Debs has just said....I'm in the next county over & we've had every type of rain & hail daily over the past two weeks! Just no logic to it!! :D
The weather certainly is crazy - we had a very dry winter and then a week of solid rain; one night we even had a tornado warning!

I daren't say it - the area without a hosepipe ban and no drought has has no rain despite being forecast - until today. Don't worry we are catching up now.
Snow and then a couple of days of rain here. It's still chilly, but we finally have a day of mostly sunny skies. We were totally flooded when I was a little girl. My parents lost most of what they had. It's my first real memory.
I have just seen the flooding on the News!

I'm writing this while listening to the rain pour down on the roof lights, as the heavy rain earlier broke part of our guttering lol. Mind you saying all this, I'm still over the moon that the garden is getting watered :)
It's always the way if you ask me. We had ten years of quite severe drought and when the rains came so many poor people were flooded because the ground was so hard everything just ran off!
We seem to get flooding in parts of the province every year. I hope these poor people do not experience too much displacement.
Good grief - that's quite some flooding! We're wet wet wet up here in the NW, but at least we hadn't got as far as a hosepipe ban - perhaps that's next week's news LOL!
