Hi Dan and anyone else in the Northwest...
We have torrential rain and there is more to come according to the met office rainfall radar
For those up here doing carboots on Sunday, it doesn't look too good either...
So if anyone out there is selling any items that could be useful in flash floods....get 'em on!!!:D
I also noticed that I have some real activity on my site.. could be cos people are like me and not able to get out into the garden so are trawling the auctions ....not everyone for tennis obviously:)

Well how about buying some books then for those dull boring moments when there is nothing to do but sit in the car and watch the rain pour down?

Yep, raining here too, but they did forecast it, so was expecting it.
We need it to be honest, not had a lot for the last 7 weeks. It's been bootiful up 'ere!

here in somerset its been threatening rain but still not arrived but with glastonbury not far away , and the forcast said rain on and off untill Monday this way, there were customers in the supermarket this afternoon with wellies, doing the shop before glastonbury, but if its anything like usual, there certainly will be a call for the waterproofs down here. hope everyone manages good sales of waterproof clothing.
