Canute?

" Hello, A to office.......no I haven't got rid of the puddle. Why? I'll tell you why 'cause it's a blinkin' river here."

I'd just waded through this torrent to get to my car. The Head was prodding a grid with an umbrella and A was trying to sweep water down an already overflowing drain. Not an exciting pic but my feet were wet and I wanted to get home.

I have just had an email from my brother, a photo of my new niece. Welcome to the world little girl.
