Mopping up

I got home safely after the awful weather yesterday and in the early hours.  It was a scary journey along narrow mountain roads in the dark as a torrent poured from the sky.  On the coast three months of rain fell in one night. In the morning, I woke up to pools of water upstairs and downstairs as the roof has let in water.  I spent the morning making lots of calls to the insurance company and to local artisans to provide estimates. I was pleased when one of them turned up after just a couple of hours.  It has now stopped rained and the sun is peeping out so the water should now stop running down the walls!
