Yep, same here. Had a storm the other night, but the roads were perfectly dry by the morning. Hell, even the floor inside the Land Rover was dry..... couldn't have been that much rain  :lol:  :lol:

According to the 'Yorkshire Post'[/b] we had 1/2 inch in a hour, which apparantly is very heavy.

i had one last wednesday, i was out and i can see the lightening and hear the thunder from the room i was having a meeting in and on my way home i came round a corner and ... the road was under water, so i ended up locking the brakes and sliding in (remember at this point that i drive a fiesta) but luckily only went in a few inches deep, had to detour and that was flooded as well but i could see where that one ended and could tell that it was only 4ish inches deep so i went through that one.
i wish, i wish, i wish i had a landy,
a fiesta is so boring!!!

Its something that you dont need a Land rover for, you need an ARK in a real flood.
