As you can see it rained all day I left Thomas to his own devices in the morning Whilst I went to the bank and Corfields. In the afternoon we measured and sorted pipes to put a header tank of diesel for the generator. Then about 4:30 pm Caroline rang to say that she was stuck at school because the Kyre brook was out in Tenbury high street, where the wall had collapsed the other day. I picked up Ginny at Bromfield The A49 appeared to be blocked at Ashford so we went Via Richards Castle then back to Woofferton Just before Little Hereford we pulled a Van out of what was about the tenth flood we went through. We were allowed down the main street at Tenbury but was blocked at the bend by the Crow. I walked to meet Caroline but failed to find her but when I came back the water was another 6inches deeper. Eventually Caroline came with two other teachers in tow we took one to clee hill and one to whitton. We eventually got home at about 7:00pm
