Ours just seem to be almost non-stop. At least, though, we haven't had much snow. At least not yet.

Fortunately our island copes fairly well with rain - but we have had damage to the sea walls in four or five places. We don't rely on the British government, we'll just have to hope the repairs get done with money from our own government reserves.

But Cameron is so two faced. As someone pointed out, he only said 'Money is no object' when the flooding reached the home counties. And also, despite that statement, he is not willing to give any more to the environment agency to pay for flood defences or even for more equipment - and he is not going to change the plans for cutting their budget this year and so requiring them to cut the workforce.

So presumably all this money he is talking about will go to private firms, probably run by his old school chums...
