    Heavens no! Besides, I live on a fairly high, steep hill anyway, so the chance of me flooding due to rivers or the sea is virtually nil.

    Myself, I'd probably searched for the best vantage point to study the grand scale of the floods. Given, when the time's just past midnight, that's a pretty fruitless endeavour. I'm never going to see any more than what I'd see out of my bedroom window anyway.
    Pretty much. Of course, I live at the seaside, and it takes thirty seconds to get the the shore itself.
    So, guess who only got back from watching the flood ten minutes ago?
    Will post pics in You thread tomorrow; I stayed pretty much until the waters were definitely down and staying down, so I got some good anecdotes.
    Also I got very wet given I was nearly - well, I say nearly, by the end I was knee deep in flood waters.
    In my old leaky trainers and some tracky bottoms I'd intended to wear to bed as my room is freezing. But it was for a good cause!
    No, I'm not some kind of idiot daredevil photographer who went into dangerous currents just to get a better shot. Totally a Good Samaritan. >.>

    Shame that. Floods are excellent. Well . . . they're not, but they're fun to watch. Of course, we're all vultures so.
    There was one guy, I'm certain he was working for the local newspaper, and I think he took photos of me . . . , but anyway, he went straight for the money shot.
    But I won't tell you what that is. That would be spoiling the Epic Saga.


    Now if you don't mind, I'm off massage warmth and feeling into my legs and feet before I lose them to the cold. Good thing we've got several old, rough towels isn't it?
    Also, I have video, some of which is of good enough quality to post. And some of which have my voice in them. Never realised how odd my voice is; it's . . . semi-RP, semi-accent if that makes sense.
