    Hi Graham, it’s fantastic that yourself & Fiona can now sit in a dry & cosy boat & just relax during the monsoon downpours, the months of toil & hard work over the summer months & your recent window project have certainly been a huge success. You may be a bit restricted & bored, but you’re warm & dry!😊👏👏👏🙌
    Good of you to check in on Mr Bond’s vessel, has he returned to dear old Blighty? It’s a beautiful boat, the wooden interiors are lovely 😍, whoever owns it, they’re very lucky folk. Hopefully Fiona’s sanding discs show up soon, the rain dries up & normal life & boat work can resume!
    RIP 🕯️🕊️ to the poor souls who’ve lost their lives in the horrendous floods & my sincere condolences to their families & loved ones who’ll be utterly devastated.😔💔 I agree Graham they need to get civil engineers & surveyors sorting out better flood defence systems, also planting more trees, it’s been proven that trees can absorb a huge amount of water in flooding conditions, also their roots make the surrounding ground/soil more permeable, so less water runs off the hills; but it would cost an absolute fortune to fully address the problem, will they invest in long term & viable preventative measures, that’s the sixty six million dollar question! They could apply to the EU for financial assistance to help, I know here in Scotland there were EU grants received many years ago to help build huge stretches of flood defence walls with flood gates across bridges that can be deployed when the rivers are likely to breech, it made a huge difference to the area where we had our business premises.
    Take care, God bless & hope you sleep well. xx 💕💞🩷💪

    There's a lot to be said for building your house on a hill... Needs bigger and better sewage pipes laid - it's like in the UK, too many houses being built and the infastructure for drainage isn't updated, still using Victorian pipework etc., ridiculous! There's saying on news the death toll in Spain is 158 people, but obviously still lots of people not accounted for. It's horrendous.

    Yes. It looked really severe in Spain. All the deaths are terrible, and do they even have a full count yet? What a tragedy.
    When Hurricane Helene came through here, the creek behind my RV rose at least 10 feet in very few minutes. Had it not stopped when it did, it would have been here. It turned from a sleepy creek to a raging river, taking down trees and everything in its path. Had the rain not stopped when it did, the damn would have failed and who knows how much that would have taken out. As it was, the water took out a friend’s RV and everything she owned. Fortunately, she heeded the evacuation order.
    In the mountains around us, many people lost their homes and businesses to mudslides. Roads were totally washed out, and they were stranded. For days people couldn’t even get to them to deliver supplies.
    What was wonderful was seeing how much the communities came together to get supplies, such as water, to people. We were not the worst area hit. Starting about 15 miles to the west and continuing farther west, they were really devastated.
    Believe it or not, Musk was who stepped up to help with communication and supplies. The government was turning away help and supplies away, but he managed to work around them. We heard helicopters flying day and night for at least a couple of weeks providing supplies and trying to get to trapped people.
    I’d experienced hurricanes and flooding before, but I had never experienced anything like this before. It definitely showed me what water can do.

      @pamelalipscomb8332 2 дні тому

      Graham, after the hurricane when they were looking at how to rebuild, their insurance companies told them it was not covered, because they consider a mud slide a flood. Since the people weren’t around any bodies of water and figured the water wouldn’t flood in the mountains, they hadn’t purchased flood insurance.
