Deere-est Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 I heard about floods in Ireland and Northern Island on the news but have yet to see any pics. From what FM has shown us it does not look at all good. What were the built up areas like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Ferguson Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 It's been baking hot here most of the day.... VERY warm this arvo... BUT... we've just had about 1" of rain in the last 10 mins here now :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CX820Joe Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 It didn't start out too bad here today, thought we might be in for a decent spell and had ideas of going off on the bike with the camera and seeing if there was anything to see combine wise, but then the rain came and went and came and went and so on... But this might amuse you; a few years ago there was a fire at where I work (this isn't the funny bit by the way!) it was confined to one of the toilets - a roof fan caught fire, caused a bit of damage in the room itself (melting the loo) but mostly smoke damage. Anyway, as a result we had to implement a lot of safety measures should the same thing happen again, one being that the 2 bedrooms that face onto the car park had their windows replaced with large doors, the reason for this being that for heavier patients they could be evacuated without moving them from their bed, the whole bed would be pushed out. We had a demonstration of a new bed today and the bloke brought it into one of the rooms with doors and we pushed the one already in there onto the car park with the bedding still on it, out into the bright sun...little did we realise while the new bed was demonstrated that the heavens had opened and soaked the bed outside!
