A river runs through it...

...or rather, over it. The picture under the cut at the bottom is the view from our flat at 9pm today. It hasn't rained at all, but the water's been steadily rising and rising towards our garage. Fortunately we live on the first floor, above the garage, so we're fine, but there's lots of damageable stuff in the garage and I worry about these things.

( So the day went something like this: )

So we got everything off the ground in the garage, and will just have to wait and see what happens. I'm still worrying, but Oxford's missed the worst of the flooding while all the surrounding towns are waist-deep in water, so I've got little to complain about.

If you see a request for snorkels go up here, you'll know it all went horribly wrong...
