Flood no. 2....6 weeks and four days after flooding in October.

Six weeks and four days exactly, since Soggibottom flooded at the start of October.

I wish I could say that the photo of Freya was taken six weeks ago, but it was taken at 8.a.m. this morning.

We aren't the only ones in the South West of England today. There are houses and cars that have been trapped by flood water.

If anyone ever wonder's exactly what  colour the water is when you get flooded, mostly it's this colour.

Not such a beautiful muddy red, kind of sewerage dirt and who knows what else.
Can there be anything else ?

Our little car has been bashed by someone who wasn't looking where they were going earlier this year.
She's now survived flood water for the second time.. Luckily it was parked where the old garage used to be and the spot is slightly raised from the rest of the road.

The cottage window boxes survived again..

With help from our flood gate that was in the front of the door all night, our bed quilts and some of the contents of my linen cupboard. We managed to keep most of the cottage dry inside this time.

We also have sandbags around the doors. More heavy rain forecast over the next few days, we are all taking our turn for water watch.
