If anybody is thinking of visiting Wales it's a little wet at teh moment.

The first picture is beleive it or not a car park! If you want a proper Ford look at the second pic but you don't hang around there.

Not a lot of choice, she wouldn't even walk over the bridge.

The main road in our village is up to the doors now, glad I live on the hill!

One one hand those pictures are brilliant, lots of fun to be had around you.

On the other (more serious) hand, hope it all dies down soon before there is some real trouble.

For Siecroz I live in Cwm y Glo, half way from Caernarfon to Llanberis, see if I'm home if your visiting, I work on QM2 so Im away a lot.

It rained all night and is lots deeper today, the road in the village is now closed (to most people) some of the houses have floods at their back doors.

As for that Lyn PAdarn car park in Llanberis Wifey was not getting out of the car so we just gota  picture out the front of the car, when you look at the bow wave remember this IS A CAR PARK !!!

As for Minfordd I didn't look today, if you llok yesterday it was under control, I know the road and how far it would be up the car, today I wouldn't have done it.

Has anybody seen teh forn in Caernarfon? I may get a picture of that in after the weekend if the levels are still high, that is a bit much to drive at the moment though as not only is it fast but there is a nasty step where you need to place your wheels carefully.

The wife reckons she had something similar on the way to Staining Blackpool yesterday... Not a river crossing, just a dip in the road - but not in a Disco but a Subaru Impreza - your bottom is a little closer to the water line....
