Apparantly, we were told that Barnsley Hospital was flooded in sections yesteday afternoon, so we were on standby to recieve patients who lived between Wakefield & Barnsley.
The funny thing is (in a way) that the Hospital is on highest land in Barnsley :roll:

Alos the M62 was partially flooded in sections (well.... standing water yesterday tea-time)
