Drove across to Bedfordshire yesterday to stay with friends before a visit to Allon White today. Well yesterday, that part of the world got hammered by storms and the Plus 4 sat outside taking the full force of the associated torrential downpours all night. It's fair to say that a little bit of rain found its way inside but nothing a good towelling couldn't dry off. Then today with the A421 closed due to flooding we had to take an alternate route to Cranfield which meant crossing the road bridge over the A421 at Marston Moretaine. The waters continued rising all day and Mrs FT snapped this pic from the bridge as we set off for home this evening. The road disappearing into the water at the top of the pic was quite surreal and if you look closely (just below the triangular warning sign) you can also see the boot lid of a car that didn't quite make it through! Driving back to Suffolk the rain eased then stopped and the roads got drier and drier - very welcome!
