My boss phoned me tonight just before 9 o'clock. The shop has been flooded. No, not the weather - the water company! They have been trying to find a water mains for the past week or two. Well they found it. Just before 5 o'clock tonight. A lot of our stock is now water logged, as are the carpets and curtains. We'd just opened a baby department in the shop next door on Tuesday

Looks like we'll be out with the mops for days ;)

The local papers were out in force as the water spout was going over the roofs - 3 storeys high! :D
