Unfortunately (or fortunately) I don't have any rellies who were caught up in the flood but I found it very interesting as I only live a couple of miles away from Bradfield, where the dam that burst was situated. The flood waters passed about 1/2 a mile from where I live now.

Thanks Joan Very interesting - although I have no rellies involved, I used to live in Sheffield (Woodseats). Helen
