Bit miserable but no storm here today in Riumar!

Just spent 5-6 hours getting rainwater out of the sitting room-it is seeping through the wall. Never had this problem before. Life can be so wonderful in the campo!!

Seems in the Els Reguers area we had around 110mm of rain between midday & midnight yesterday.Some of the village houses have been flooded & the road between Reguers & Roquettes is impassable this am.I have heard in the Ulldecona area the rainfall for that period may have been more like 190mm!   Electric went out from around 4.00pm Sat afternoon to i believe very early am this morning.

Much clenaing up to do today.
They have been working on our road putting rain run-offs down the side but never finished the work, result all the rainwater was directed down our drive and through the house and into the garden with lots of damage.  Children's slide set in concrete washed away and interior fences ripped down.  Bet that there's no chance of getting any compensation from whoever authorised the work !!
Saw Niagara Falls a few years back, nothing compared to yesterday.

Mea Culpa! I'm sorry I knew I was tempting fate by cutting the tops of my wellies last week  to make them more useable!!

Rain, what rain!!!!! 2.30pm settled in to watch our recorded casualty on TV. 3.30pm nearly at Tortosa casualty with him indoors, at this time he was down to wellington boots and his underpants trying to dig a hole through next doors finca wall good ole boy in less than an hours digging we had a fast flowing river at the front of the house. short lived pleasure in less than an hour later, sweeping water out of the kitchen door 2 hours of this then a meeting called as water now built up over a metre at the back of the house so had to open the kitchen window and front door. Now had two new water features one externally and one running internally straight through the house as we watched our possessions bobbing up and down merrily. Didn't finish sweeping the water out till 1am this morning, we fell into bed with his usual words of wisdom thank goodness there was no shipping in the area or we could have ended up with a ship sailing through the house his parting shot and his usual little gem, will fix that tomorrow, so now with his Dunkirk spirit my gas water heater does not work, the electric keeps going off, everything a real mess and all he says is hasn't the rain made the garden look good.
Yours waterlogged Bulldogs other half.

ho my god    thought we had it bad damp patches comeing on the walls in places but nothing like some of you have ,hope you all get tidy and sorted soon xx
