BOSCASTLE FLOODING

My thoughts go out to all the people of Boscastle who's village has been so badly damaged by the storms yesterday.

Living so close it really hits home. I remember when Bude flooded but the damage was nothing compared to what happened in Boscastle.

Ditto BD .... it looks totally wrecked *friend sent me some before and after pics he found on net*. I feel so sorry for the people in that village. We've had landslides with the weather up here as well, but certainly not on that scale. Was one between Lochearnhead and Killin, outside Stirling, but people were airlifted to safety.

Bless the helicopter pilots ..... i wouldn't want their job i can tell you.
