Holiday time

We are due to go on holiday tomorrow :-)
We are going to a beautiful seaside town called Ilfracombe, in South Devon.

However, the weather, both at home and there, is atrocious. Torrential rain, high winds and thunderstorms.

Added to that , a town not too far from Ilfracombe has been severely hit by flash-floods, with a month`s worth of rain falling in less than two hours. The floods in Boscastle were so severe that 7 rescue helicopters were needed to rescue people. Thank God, no-one was seriously hurt and everyone survived.

The long range weather forecast for the next 5 days is equally bad.
We are having some strange weather.

But still, we are going on holiday...and we are not camping, we will be staying in an hotel :-)


So, folks, I will be off-line till Weds of next week. Take care of yourselves !
