Finally stopped raining,have backwashed about 15 tonne of water from the pool over the last 7 hours so those of you in the UK get someone to check your pools.

Noticed a big blue water hose in the vid. You weren't just taking delivery of water from a tanker were you?

How glad I am to be in the UK, feel sorry for kev though lol, he stayed behind because of our dogs. The weather here in Bristol this morning is fog and 1 degree but carpets and gch make it bearable and of course suitable clothing when going out,.

Morning Sandie, all going well here, Christmas shopping this morning after I have taken Daniel to school, I spoke to Kev earlier and he said it was horrendous there, the dogs wouldn't go out for a pee this morning so he had to drag them out lol, and they ran straight back in.



Hope you are both well and speak soon xx
