    Hi Joseph, that’s a lot of flooding, your property was pretty soaked 😮. I hope it starts drying up for you 🤞🏻. Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend 👍🏻🙋🏼‍♂️🙂

      Hi Luc, the water levels are dropping fast now and we have not had any rain for a few days now. Our land is very heavy and does not drain well. Take care and I hope you have a good week

    Awesome video, Joseph. Thanks for posting. Thank goodness your home is on higher ground and not damaged. Hoping and praying for fair weather for all you good folks in England. Here in Central Oklahoma, we have had 14 mild earthquakes over the past 24 hours, the strongest being a 4.7 which took down pictures from the walls. Unusual for Oklahoma, but not unheard of. Best wishes to you and your family, stay safe!!

      Thanks 👍 The floods are starting to drop now but we do seem to get floods more frequently the last few years. I did not realise the Oklahoma was an earthquake zone, I hope you did not get any damage. Take care

    Nice tour, Joseph. Lots of flooding everywhere in your area. As you said, many were hit with deeper and more devastating floods. Let's all hope they are getting the help they need. Your sister will be thrilled with your contribution to her trail cameras, I'm sure. Take care!

    We've been having heavy rains and snows in Connecticut too. I built on a hillside so that it pretty much drains in a day but, our rivers are at flood stage. Several houses up the road have flooded yards and basements. I remember flooded roads in 1968 where guys were floating over the flooded areas in their VW beetles, which float. Stay dry guys. Good Luck, Rick

    The trick of driving throgh fords involves knowing how highyour air intake is mounted. Holidayed on the broads many years ago, had a wonderful wek in which we motored from Wroxham down to Breydon water and Yarmouth, then back up the Yare to Norwich, turned round and went back! Great fun, last week of the season and almost empty! Another greatVideo guys, keep yer feet dry!!

    • @GardenTractorBoy
      @GardenTractorBoy  Рік тому +1

      We do try to avoid going through floods even though the air intake and axle breathers are high on the Land Rover, although that ford can be fun if the water is low. The broads are a great place to visit and you would have gone along that stretch of river which was the Yare and about 3 miles out of Norwich. We have been on the broads when the river is flooded and it is really hard to work out where the banks are. Take care

      In Victorian times it was decided to build drains in the UK as a combined system which means that it is not just rainwater in some of the floads which is horrible for the people who's houses were flooded. With the changes in the climate we are seeing more floods. Take care

    I saw your UA-cam channel ''Garden Tractor Boy''. Your channel has many videos but not enough views and subscribers. Your channel should be optimized, your videos are very good but your video optimization is very bad Example: SEO score is zero, no perfect title - description - no SEO friendly tags added, no social media sharing Platform and some in your UA-cam channel Settings are not correct. Because of this your video is not reaching the people who are interested and you are not getting enough views, likes and subscriptions
    Many problems for which your video views and subscribers are not good.
    As a result, your video views are not affected.
    You need SEO for your UA-cam channel immediately. As a video SEO expert, I look forward to your response.
