A month in a day

Spare a thought for those caught up in the flooding in/around South Yorkshire.

Sheffield has seen 84mm of rain in 24 hours compared to their normal November average of 79.4mm.



Parked cars up to their door handles in water:


There are photos of cars in flood water where roads pass under bridges. Why do people try to drive through flood water in low spots like that? Confused Visiting from rrsport.co.uk

"When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die! You don't know who's children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they were always going to have to do from the very beginning: SIT DOWN AND TALK!"

They should be fine on the whole. Them's some seriously steep hills. Right down to the Carrs (open plains towards Crop Dryers).

Let's hope everyone is OK? "Track day running - Don't put your foot back on the accelerator until your absolutely sure you don't have to take it off again"
