        Hope all is ok in those areas that were hit bad last time

        Myself, I have been out in the New Forest today, and there are some big "puddles' to play in Went through the ford in Brockenhurst much to the amusement of some school kids who wanted me to do a 'repeat' whilst they got a bit closer - so who was I to refuse Mind you they did back off as I approached the water!!! The road from Brockenhurst to Beaulieu is closed cos of the water in ford the under the bridge being too deep - but not too deep for the Surf!! The spray and bow wave was great, although the other half just shut her window in time As I got through the other side, a local walking his dog advised me that I "can't go through it cos it's flooded!" Don't think he was amused when I turned around and went back through it!!!

        Oh what fun one has in a Surf

        Cheers, Nick

          Stopped raining here at about 10am. No sign of rain since then, and a few glimpses of sunshine and blue sky.

                  It's an 'Irish Bridge' type ford. Normal flow is under small culverts under the road- only a ford in time of flood- rest of the time it's a bridge!

                  Move your mouse over the picture in the link to see water/no water condition!


                  Oh- and this what happens if your middle name is 'stupid'....

                      in yorkshire last year, i was out with my nan in my surf, and a load of roads were closed because of flooding.

                      at one point we see a bedford rascal up to the roof almost, and the back end of a brand new mr2 lol
