    Dosent matter if they were cleaned regually, the sheer volume of water meant it couldnt cope, 1 months rainfall in a few hours.

    I know people want to blame somebody but its nobodys fault it rained so hard.

    I have a friend who only handed over keys on friday, glad she did but feel for new folk... water coming in at window level.. what a nightmare... welcome to your new home..

    however it was foreast/predicted...so 1 the council should have issued warnings more than 10 mins to get out of houses and two.. maybe im cautious... but first sign coming near me I would move everything as friend did in Bently Doncaster..told her not to put back ... she was putting house back on Tue eve...I think weekend will be the test...

    heart goes out to all of those that have been flooded.. homes and cars
