I came home to this.

After the recent glorious weather and a great 4 days at the Isle of Man TT, I arrived home yesterday and was met by this.

The roundabout near my house had disappeared under water, a bridge had collapsed and an old lady had to be rescued using a wheelie bin.

Welcome home.

That looks bad - was your home OK ?

Re: I came home to this.

Goodness that looks terrible

Re: I came home to this.

Yes, luckily.

I live a couple of hundred yards from there, uphill, fortunately.

The shop, on the roundabout, was shut due to flood water ingress.

Blimey Tpin, that looks bad. Glad you're alright though.
How's your old doggy these days, you still got him?

p.s. About time you joined us again.

Re: I came home to this.

Next time you go away, check you turned the taps off!

Re: I came home to this.

I'm on a meter.....will my home insurance cover me?

Phones been off I've just found out.

Hi Terry

Is that Bramhall? It's been pretty bad in this village too but not my end.
Glad you're ok.

Sad about Paul Shoesmith at the TT. He was a regular in my store too.

Re: I came home to this.

Nope and the neighbours are gonna get you!

No seriously, that's not a nice thing to come home to!

Re: I came home to this.

Yes, the big roundabout at Bridge lane.

He was a good friend, I've known him since I was 18.
We(bikers)used to go to the Cat & Fiddle and Matlock regularly.

He was at my Poynton home house warming party when it was finished, he ended up swimming in the pool

A great guy with heaps of character.
