All week all I've heard about is that London was gonna get heavy rain and might be flooded - where is it then? It rained a bit earlier but, y'now, it was just a bit wet for 20 minutes.
They're always predicting the end of the world, then it doesn't happen. Can't they just stick to making 'Horizon' documentaries about it, the big girls blouses?

If its flooding you want today then come to worcestershire, been raining like a tropical storm all day
and i think the river Severn is bursting its banks again -.-

[whopper]

Saint Albans was shone in God's light all day today, as always







except for about 1pm where it was torrential rain

Southampton was torrential rain most of the day, and our park is flooded, can`t get round to some bits of it.
But fuck the global warming shit, I can remember it flooding much more than it is now when I was a kid.
We`re on a steep incline up from the Solent so we`re okay.

I`m fuckin Lording it at the minute, never been to so many gigs in such close succesion, in so many different countries..
Might be heading your way when the East Coast dates are announced, so prepare to welcome us with open arms !!!
Thats if what we recycle enough to counteract all the flights.
We got a Chinese lad staying with us at the moment (Patricks return exchange)
They do fuck all over there to replenish, and even frown upon it.
Its hearing this that makes me so sceptical.

Maidenhead, Windsor and west London are all a stone's throw from my manor, and yet all we got was a few hours of rain and no disruption whatsoever. The minute it was over, the sun came out, and two hours later you'd never have guessed it even happened!
