Mentioned to a Dad at the laddo's swimming yesterday,  "it ain't stopped raining for about 6 days.."
"37 days", he said. "Local news said 37 days it hasn't stopped raining for..."

My word, he ay wrong.

How much rain have we had so far?

We're gonna need a smaller boat when the revenue shrinks even more in League One.

You lot need to use more clever marketing ideas, branded sinking ship merchandise would open up another revenue stream to combat PSR

If we wait for the life guards to come and mug them will that close the PSR gap?

If we had a few more reservoirs we could capture all this water and use it when we have the inevitable drought and hosepipe ban in the Summer. Or will a scientist or meteorologist tell me this wouldn’t work for some reason I’m too stupid to know about?

Drove past the site of the proposed Abingdon Reservoir just this morning. Protest signs AOTS. Those farmers don't want it in their front yard, for sure.

I live in Stourport which floods badly. Most of the flooding occurs on flood plains though, so it's really only the playground and car park that floods. Upstream in Bewdley, they completed a 10 million quid flood defence last September. as more buildungs are situated on the river bank and get routinely flooded. Well, the new system did it's job and has been tested to the max! Never seen the water levels so high and flowing downstream so quickly. If you fell in, you wouldn't be getting back out!

I live in Astwood Bank and according to the Met Office 41 days of rain and counting. BBC is showing as rain every day until Saturday which is currently showing as a dry day then 9 more rain days after that, its very depressing

Only Severn Side North/South had the barriers this AM. Have they put up the Beale Corner defensives now?
