Flood water again..... water watch.




For the second time this year, water has surrounded Soggibottom Cottage. Just as we were about to put things back from when it happened six weeks and four days ago.


This time it arrived at 8 a.m. and not 4 a.m. Lots of effort went into keeping all the nasty dirty water out.



This is where the water all comes from. This should be a path along side a children's play park (no dogs allowed on the other side of the picket fence). Beyond that there is the park where I go every morning.
Not this morning......


This time, we kept most of the water out, we are on flood watch again over the next few days. So much more rain is expected.
I'm on watch both sides of the cottage, the front,


and my cat flap Cavalier door.


Frankie de tabby is fine after coming in a bit wet and bedraggled. He's well enough to have found my new dog bed again, now that it has been moved upstairs...
Keep you posted.....

  1. Hope you can manage to stay dry. Our house hasn't flooded yet this year (knock wood), but I'm sure it's going to with all the rain we've been getting this week.
