Will with greatest respect, the event today was an n'th of the event that
occurred here 4 weeks ago, yes a lot of rain fell in Southern England in
a short space of time, and the tabloids will undoubtedly reflect it. But
hey this was nothing in comparrison to what happended here 4 weeks ago!
Yes I'm sure because it hit the politically important South it will
recieve much more air time. Seriously today was just a serious day for a
few Southern locations but not anything remotlely akin to Hulls plight !

Rant over

and yes it's raining here, but us third world Northerners get over it!
Lets see what transpires in the news in the coming days ehh! Dare they
plead Government help and if so will the government be as agile as they
were 4 weeks ago!!!!!!!!!

I'm sorry, but I'm finding this North vs South thing churlish especially
when in both instances people's lives are seriously affected. I don't have
any prejudices about other regions of the UK and haven't seen it in the
media in the past few weeks regarding the floods in the North, Wales and
West Midlands..
I await the Southern softies posts when it snows for the first time this
winter with eager boredom.
