Flooding 2

... and here we are four months later

The 'flood prevention' scheme has created a flood zone:


It's gone 11pm and the neighbour bangs on the door to alert us


Every time a vehicle goes by the waves head for our front door


The fire engine pumps away the water for about 4 hours!


It's like a lake outside our house


'Where's the bloody drain?'


Still raining and still flooded


Next morning the road sweepers clear the drains for 3 hours!


It's a time-consuming process... thinks the driver


The water didn't quite reach the front of our house, but it was close!

First batch

Police car parked in the middle of the road,
eventually it drove through 'waist deep' heading for Burry Port

The fire engine's been pumping away water for hours

First arty one - looks like a ghostly soldier to me

Bob The Builder - can you fix it?

Ghost ship


Warning, warning!

Standing outside the house watching the firemen go by

By now over half the water has gone!
