Too wet!
So...the other day we had nearly another 100 mms of rain in one day on top of the various other showers which we have been having over the last fortnight. The ground is sodden and water is running off the hills all around us. We have been trying hard to stop the road up to the house from washing away due to the steeper sections and have been pretty successful overall but some sections are looking dodgy. The dam has continued to rise and is less than a foot below the overflow channel. Will has never seen it so high. The bridge down at Glen Aplin was once again briefly flooded by the River Severn meaning Will had to make a long detour to work. It is interesting to note that exactly a year ago we were in a panic about the bush fire just over the hill.
