Had to drive through almost 1 foot deep water in the s2k to get home because loads of roads closed so watch out around Newcastle / Gateshead.

Hose pipe ban this weekend I recon.

 

Sooo different down here, today.

 

26 degrees just now in Milton Keynes and very very sunny!!!!

 

exactly was all around mk, bedford and northants today and weather was very warm yet saw a few people getting caught in floods and my friends buisness in leicestershire had his roof calapse with rain...

bloomin shandy drinking northerners!!

 

Spot the car

 

I can't see the car but it's roof is ok

 

Where is the pic taken?

 

Looks like either the main DC into the town from TwoBall Lonnen or the exit out of the town towards Jesmond?

 

I don't know what town you mean... im from scotland

 

It took me three and a half hours for my usual one-and-a-bit journey home... Alas it took Mrs P five and a half hours to get home this evening (tonight!) - a mere 22 miles!

Total chaos in Geordie Land as Plod were pretty much nowhere to be seen in respect of closing roads and setting up diversions around some massive floods.

The syke in our neighbour's garden sounds like Niagara Falls and her gravel drive is now in the adjacent ford! That's the nearby river crossing and not a Dagenham product BTW.

Much TV chatter about weather systems being the cause but being a conspiracy theorist ,I think it's the work of dark forces with scalar weapons...
