Ford's, pottertons... What a cool video, remember like it was yesterday.

image of a cat surfing on a carpet now burned into my mind!.

I remember this, it was horrible having to live in those kind of conditions

I still have trouble with my ground floor flat that got caught in that flood

the new Venice

I live in Leamington

I was living in Leam Terrace when this flood happened on Good Friday ‘98. Went downstairs & opened stairwell door to see one of my cats ‘surfing’ on the carpet. I had to close the door & open it again as honestly thought I was imagining things! The water was up past the skirting boards throughout the ground floor of the cottage.

My grandmas house got flooded by this flood

Live in leam and didnt even see this ! OmG HAHA

Sadly one person lost their life; but otherwise, we got some much better new buildings in the park and the estate agents all got flooded out!

it was bad there where i lived it was waste hight
