Hi Steward. Really sorry to hear you've been flooded. I'm up at my sisters just outside Carnforth and thought that we'd be hit badly today....the village green outside flooded a little and the bottom of the orchard but the worst rain passed south of us...sadly over you!
I spent Christmas Eve with a couple and their son who had been flooded out of their place in Kendal and have moved temporarily into a neighbouring village...they have been told probably six months before they can return

I really hope you haven't been hit as badly. If there's anything I can do to help do let me know.
