The floods have affected my internetz and the web server for my ISP is out - or summat. This is truly outrageous! Never mind the fact that hundreds of people are in shelters and village halls a few miles away and have lost all their belongings - no net!... this is simply a step too far!
See you when I see you.

That would deserve a cooked breakfast!

We saw pictures of the floods on the news last night - is the water lapping at your door?

Nurse, where the fuck's my cardigan?
And my gin!

No - we live 15 miles from the worst bits. Plus we bought this place a year after major floods here in Carlisle three years ago. One of the factors we considered given that there is increased flooding these days was making sure we were up a hill..Which we are.
Thanks for asking.
