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! |
