New Raincoat

We've been waiting and waiting for this to arrive from Lands' End..and finally it has. He's never really needed one till now :) Just like the rain cover on the stroller--never used it till coming here (thanks Camilla for telling me how it works!). It seems that the water only rose 1 meter, and so far all is okay. Pangbourne is still in a flood warning, but they are thinking that it won't be as bad as they initially thought. I thought this story from the BBC about the Goldfish being found is cute: Goldfish rescued from flood water

As we were coming home last night from checking it all out, we heard on the radio, that people were getting soo desperate for sand bags, that they were stopping at roadworks and stealing them from the signs that they were holding down!
