He eventually arrived at cubed towers at 6.30 after driving through knee deep water that had poured through peoples homes :embarrassed: Link to post Share on other sites

Tony B 24 Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Don't worry.I'll do my famous sun dance. :banana: B*G OFF!!!! Acording to the Met Office you lot in Europe are hogging the Jet Stream , which is currently doing a U Turn around the Britsh Isles, leaving us in Artic air. If it had been winter we'd be under 10 Meters of snow, which would have at least led to some excitment on the Olympic Torch Relay. Any way, Thames' Water say I can use a hosepipe tomorrow! So if it stops raining I can get the pressure washer out! :noyay: Link to post Share on other sites

R Cubed 10 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 Just putting the finishing touches to the GMC high water flotation devices, you know like the land rover ones, only thing is they are quite big but should be ok if I need them. Will need volentears to take turns to blow them up though :nut: Link to post Share on other sites
Joris 23 Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Well imagine it being 30 degrees Celsius from now on till after A&E, no way the tanks would be allowed out then. Asphalt would be too weak to hold it. As long as it's dry, but I know that's asking for a lot. Link to post Share on other sites
Tony B 24 Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 According to two Britsh Newspapers the Metro and Daily Mail. Metro major 50 year storm and 54 hour Met office Weather Warning issued.
