one end of our road
our lovely walk through the fields
no sandal wearing today
this is actually the path through the fields
one side garden, dry land in the middle, other side pavement
A35 road to Dorchester
River Asker, so different today than its usual genteel flow
would anyone like to play football (more like water polo)
the playing fields
backed-up traffic on the road to nowhere
but amongst all this water there is hope and this picture gives it
where is the river, where is the path
Bridports vintage quarter
some having fun
the other end of our road
no going anywhere for us then
on my way home...at last
so a rainy, flash floody Saturday in Bridport, but thats what you get I suppose when you live between two rivers that meet the sea... WHOOSH
and its still raining
next time I blog I hope that we will be in blazing sunshine, I doubt it though
Bye

Yes we are all safe and dry, but its still raining
DeleteLooks as if you have borne the brunt of it all! We have had our fair share up here though in Yorkshire, I wish it would all go away now!
ReplyDeleteI think everyone has had a bit of this havnt they, perhaps soon it will all go away.
DeleteWow, that's a lot of rain. I feel so sorry for the people who's homes have been flooded, it must be heartbreaking xxx
ReplyDeleteIt must me awful having your home flooded, I think well be safe where we live as a bit higher than centre of town.
DeleteThat looks awful, we heard if was bad over your way, although there has been flooding in trees down in Weymouth too. We live up a hill but the River Jordon at the bottom of the road is flooded and flowing fast. I'll have to check on the willow tree I am following if it ever stops!
ReplyDeleteGlad you got home in one piece.

Thanks Sarah, I hope willow is ok and still there, I think it took 2 hours to get to Dorchester at one stage today.
DeleteHope your house doesn't get flooded. I have been listening to the news about your area and it sounds serious stuff. xxx
ReplyDeleteHi Lily our house will be safe as were a little bit higher than town, but its still raining.
DeleteWow, this bloomin' weather! x
ReplyDeleteWhen will it ever stop, although tomorrow could be lovely, lets hope.
DeleteWe've had our fair share in Sheffield but nothing too serious. Hopefully things will get back to normal soon , whatever that is!
ReplyDeletetake care x
blimey! Nothing like that here, although driving up hill out of Wells yesterday, there was a river flowing down the road to meet me.
ReplyDeleteHope you and your home stay safe.
Its rained here but nothing like that!

It was amazing wasn't it. I worked Friday night and it just rained continuously all night. But sat here with warm sun blazing through my window. Crazy isn't it. (I have to say I went to Bartletts and brought myself a pair of water proof trousers, but £8 I have ever spent!!)
ReplyDeleteOh my, thank goodness you weren't washed away! It has been terrible hasn't it. Actually had a bit of sunshine today, a rare treat. x
ReplyDeleteBlimey, thank goodness for wellies!
ReplyDeleteHope you see an improvement soon. X
Hope the sun has finally arrived or at least it has stopped raining where you are. today was mostly fine but then it spoilt itself and the rain came down again ....... In stair-rods.
