dont think they get fed up with anything carol, eat that quick probably dont notice

thin we all have had dreams of living near a river carol, but not now the way the weather is changing

nice pic carol ;o))

me to deida ;o)

And why shouldnt we talk about whats happening eh! Well done C, youre sooo right about the emergency services!

yes they all work so hard to help people, with having wet summers the rivers arent going down so more rain and rising fast, something needs to be done to protect these villages from the rising rivers, now not when its to late

I didn't know there were such floods - haven't heard. The rescuers do work very hard in dangerous conditions.

So sad about the lovely policeman who lost his life saving others on the bridge in Cockermouth.

Well said Clarice!! The emergency services have a tough job to do, and are often taken for granted....bless them all xxx

Hi Clarice it is a part of gardening when gardens get washed away and damaged kind of you to mention it about the concerns of others and the rescue services we have where would we all be with out them, what a wonderful job they do.

Lovely photo, Clarice. My red berried pyacantha is still untouched by the birds.

I felt very sad to read about Cockermouth, Keswich, etc. as we have spent so many lovely holiday in the Lake District. Well done, Clarice, on highlighting the tremendous effort made by our rescue services - they certainly deserve a big pat on the back and a whole lot more.

must try that myself..thanks for the tip BB

What a lovely photo Clarice..well done

Great subject Clarice and so it's not gardening but it does highlight the dangers these people put themselves in with the sole goal of rescueing others trapped well done to the rescue teams they deserve every help they can get.

I think the whole country was watching that news as it unfolded.....our hearts in our mouths for those wonderful people who risked their lives to save so many others.
We certainly had our share of floods here a couple of weeks ago - but it was nothing compared to what we are seeing now on TV.
Where would we be without our Rescue Services...they all deserve every accolade available and I hope they recognise in some special way the bravery of that poor police man who lost his life. Our thoughts are with his grieving family.
Let's hope the Met Office have over-stated the forecast for the weekend ...or this tragedy will become a major national disaster.

its been really windy here and last saturday was awful with the rain.... my son goes on a calvert trust holiday near to where the floods are in the lake district .... he goes every other year so knows the district well......... i live right by the sea front but luckily it hasnt come over...........

ive been watching it on the news as well.........awful isnt it....

Have just commented on blog from Amblealice,about the tragedy.I used to play on that beach as a child,so very sad today.

Thats a lovely photo Clarice

So Sad

Sadly, re. the missing police man, the report is now of a body being found on the beach.... I feel so sorry for his family, friends and colleagues.

Yes, I saw film of the fast flowing river near that broken bridge... the current was so forceful, that at first, the rescue teams couldn't use boats there.

Well done, Clarice, on highlighting the alarming floods and the courage of rescue teams and ordinary members of the public doing their best to help.

I hope pets and wildlife were able to run to higher ground...
.... they have shorter legs than us...

I second that... they are all wonderful people, the weather men are saying it was an unprecidented amount of rain over a foot? ....

Yes indeed Clarice :(

How sad Clarice :( I had a Hawk take a Fledgling last summer :( But its nature like u say X

How lovely Clarice :) i have a pair that nest in My Big Laural Tree & they let me watch them in the summer when they have young & feed off my garden :)
