Good morning and hope you are all keeping dry and unflooded (not sure that's a word). Wet and windy here but we're lucky living in a first floor flat on a hill. Found £1 to PAD today.

Good morning, lots of localised flooding round here, our garden is just full of water, it gets boggy as we are a 'low table' with clay soil generally but this is quite bad. Luckily we have personally had no damage, but areas around us have.
