I would like to congratulate the mods in the news forum for their tireless work on keeping us up to date on the flood situation. The news starts early and continues till late in the night. It helped me keep my recent trip a relaxed event. I realise this might be the wrong forum as it is the winge. bitch, and moan department, but bouquets are due as well as brickbats.

Yes - a well managed and valuable resource to keep us up to date with the floods. Well done to the Mods and the contributors for the informative and lively updates and the photos.

Yes I would also like to offer my thanks to the mods working the flood news all day and most of the night. The info has been very helpful in many ways for our family.

We couldn`t do it without the massive support of people who take the time to post accurate local information. It`s truly a community effort.
