Sunny June?!

Following on from the storms and floods in Sydney and not to be out done the English summer decided to join in. Talk about flaming June, you should see the flaming weather!
Hundreds of homes across North & South Yorkshire have been flooded and we have never seen scenes like it!
Andrew & I went out on Monday and couldn't even get out of Garforth and it never floods here!

This picture shows two people struggling to get past the Old George. Behind them is the roundabout but no one could get round so it was about turn for us. Just as well I wasn't at work as I wouldn't be able to get home.

This is a view from the other side of the roundabout, because it was flooded cars were having to go round the wrong way round the roundabout, which is pretty weird when you're going the right way and cars are coming at you!





Whoa mind your brolly mister!







Back home and Isla was dressed for the weather but it was throwing it down so we didn't let her out, instead she had to make do with watching through the window. Doesn't she look cute in her raincoat and hat though? just as well you can't see her feet as we only have sandals that fit her currently.

So its been pretty wet and miserable lately, despite it being brighter today the forecast for the weekend is more rain. Good job we live on the highest spot in Garforth so not much chance of our house being flooded.

Lets hope the sun decides to make an appearance soon, we're ready!
