Floods

I feel for those drivers stuck on the M5 in Gloucestershire since 8am yesterday. Apparently things are moving again now. Also, one feels for all the people who were badly impacted by the floods yesterday, and particularly the family and friends of the one fellow who is missing.

I usually work from home on a Friday so it was Murphy's Law that I went to work yesterday. Fortunately, due to some judicious use of the internet and my wife's map reading via mobile, I managed to come home on unflooded roads - but it took three times as long as usual and an unusually long incursion into Hampshire!

To see the skies yesterday morning was extraordinary. It looked like the middle of the night at 10am.
