Absolutely no need to feel sorry. As far as I can see the post was a strictly factual account of the impact of torrential rain on you and your property. Fbg stood up amazingly well so huge congratulations. Here is a very good place to unload if you ever feel the need. You seem an amazingly level headed person. Take the very best care of yourself. There will still be work aplenty long after we have all met our maker or whatever.10-05-2020

Extremely tired this morning, no surprise there. Been out and opened barn and stable doors to help with drying out. Otherwise the neccessary big cleanup has stalled. MrSlim has sent email to man who did the drive asking him to redo the job. That helps. But weather forecast is more thunderstorms .
Which doesn't. So currently engaging in displacement activities. Cleaning things inside. My body is reacting to the situation in a predictable way, with the unwelcome return of indigestion, fat intolerance and a few other minor issues, all caused by stress.
Sorry for whingefest peeps. Will try to do better.
Thank you @gennepher.
@ianpspurs I called it a whingefest, because, in the end, it's only damage to stuff and there are people here who have lost family and friends. A fast greater loss and irrepairable.Absolutely no need to feel sorry. As far as I can see the post was a strictly factual account of the impact of torrential rain on you and your property.

No problem. We all have this treasure in vessels of clay and yours seems to be particularly robust. Top lady.@ianpspurs I called it a whingefest, because, in the end, it's only damage to stuff and there are people here who have lost family and friends. A fast greater loss and irrepairable.
Have another coffee Krystyna you know it makes sense5.6 on this lovely sunny morning. Dogs are snoozing in the conservatory. I am debating whether or not to have another coffee before their walk. As usual I feel relaxed and lazy first thing in the morning before their walk wakes me up.
BBC are running those programmes now I have watched a couple...think it's BBC 9 & its very late in the evening early hours morning more like...I was browsing & happened on it be chance fascinating the subject landscapes he made it look so easy I was almost tempted.I see many of the programs are still available on you tube even now.
Me too just said thatI loved them too.
I have been watching some recently.
Definitely not a wingefest. I would feel exactly the same if it happened to me.10-05-2020

Breakfast 2xCWC, nut granola, 2 eggs scrambled with butter.
Shopping trip on my bike. 9 kilometre each way. Prefer the back roads route even if it is slightly longer. It did seem very crowded in the supermarket. What happened to only 25 people in the store? Lockdown ends on Monday, but really it is already gone.
Lunch. Avocado, tomato, cheese and basil with lettuce and radish. 2 glasses of water and cup of tea.
Afternoon was wasted tidying the garden. Rumbling thunder turned into a deluge which has destroyed the drive we had laid in February, washed away much of my vegetable garden, flooded the barn ( where all the tools, ride on mower etc are kept)
Am grateful it didn't make the final couple of centimetres to get into the house, but when i look at the mess. Have no idea where to start clearing up.
Pulled myself together. Made tea.
Dinner: pork chop, already cooked, with cauliflower rice, green beans and onion gravy, also from yesterday. Water and wine.
Comfort food. Made myself a KC chocolate mug cake. Had it with raspberries and cream.
Second glass of wine also

Oh blast wrong thread.
Seems about right. We have a granddaughter named Poppy (very deliberate choice for a forces gal mum). I have trained the pups to sit for wait but have given up with her.In the end I had to postpone the coffee until after the walk because Poppy stood in front of me pleading for walk.
Good to know your place Krystyna...freezing here (in comparison to yesterday) now Charlie & Lola have decided they will go outside so doors open and I'm off to find a sweater.In the end I had to postpone the coffee until after the walk because Poppy and Archie stood in front of me pleading for their walk.
That is not a whingefest. That is an expression of frustration from all that stress that went on with the water. Especially as the body reacts in it’s own ways to the shock. Once you express the frustration (whatever it is), then things can only get better. I hope your day is successful in every way today.My body is reacting to the situation in a predictable way, with the unwelcome return of indigestion, fat intolerance and a few other minor issues, all caused by stress.

Well that was an interesting communication with my daughter in Australia.
We are the laughing stock of the world, or at least that was how it was portrayed in Australian news, because of the VE celebrations and the street parties, where there was absolutely no social distancing and people were intermingling and partying as normal. And they predicted an explosion of cases in 2 weeks time in the U.K.
My daughter, in Australia, also sent me links to videos she had seen on the Australian news, to prove social distancing and self isolation was not taking place in the U.K. in any shape or form. I had no idea normal partying had gone on to that wide extent.
This and more was shown on Australian news.
