This is the final outcome of the rain on Sunday. I haven't been able to put updates up earlier because of the flood affecting our phone lines and losing our internet connection. It was awesome. I've never been a part of a flood before. We got a phonecall from Astrid saying that water is up to her steps, we thought she was lying and went for a walk to see for ourselves. I'm glad we went for a walk.This was just around the corner from our house, it wasn't too bad here cars were still able to get up close to the water but got stop just alittle further up the road.
This is where it started to get deep. Traffic were screwed because they couldn't go through Chobham, so they had to get a longer way home.
Cars were stranded in the flood because it came up quite suddenly and the owners were not expecting this.
This is at Astrid's house....she wasn't lying. It was fun "wading" through the water to get to her house...... the water was fucking freezing but got there in the end.
The current of the water was quite strong at places considering it was only knee deep.
So it was an eventful evening. Glad I got to experience this. We were always told how Chobham can flood, but never got the chance to see it until now...........
