Cumbrian Floods

Post by Jim Bittlestone »

Ive had an email from Lance to say the csc club night is cancelled due to the floods.
Moved to 25th November.
Heres hoping our mates over the border are okay. Has anyone heard if the sick and the wrong is ok?
I saw the Greta has burst it banks, fingers crossed that Steve, Gordie and co are okay, it looks horrendous!
Looks like theres more to come too?

Thanks...

We are all ok! Gordie was well out of it at bass. S+W shut due to no power, and I don't think we've been flooded. (cannot get in due to floods and having a power shutter on the front). Home very nearly got flooded, shed under 6 feet of water. Cannot bring myself to look inside yet :( :( :(

But it could be worse!

I was beginning to wonder whether you escaped as You were not on line (skype etc). I hope it's all ok for you

Thanks Jim, fortunately the 'relief' effect from the Lake District ment it just rained heavy in Bassenthwaite Village and the rivers coped, whilst a wee bit it the direction of Keswick it was raining tigers and wolfs!

Had a wonder around today and took some pics: http://picasaweb.google.co.uk/Gordiefly ... erTheStorm#
