Take a snorkel then!  ;D

We've had lots of heavy rain this morning with the usual flooded roads.
Hopefully the ground can soak it up or else  :-X

That reminds me, I must arrange the boys weekend away - twice a year the around 4 or 5 of my old work colleagues go over to France/Belgium for a weekend of beer, beer, beeer, and beer. And there is always a thing of how cheaply we can get and stay there for.  I'm going to have to try really hard to get a worse hotel than the last fleapit....

Fantastic weekend and at last, I saw the Vulcan fly!

They came in to land directly over our tent (the runway lights were about 30m away!) so some fantatis sights and sounds!
