It had to happen.<\/p>\n
The last lot of rain has barely drained away from the land in to the local river network\u00c2\u00a0that is already swollen and – in a few places – overflowing.<\/p>\n
The last 12 hours of rain has been the bridge too far.<\/p>\n
Coming back from Droitwich at 13.30 I had to take a detour because the A38 was closed by the Morrison’s roundabout.<\/p>\n
Water was pouring upwards<\/em> out of the drains.<\/p>\n People were trying to drive through water levels of 2′ and over.<\/p>\n Three cars were abandoned across the road (in a ‘conked out’ kind of way).<\/p>\n I’ve declined to ride later today.<\/p>\n The roads are flooded and I expect even the arena is temporarily out of action until this downpour\u00c2\u00a0stops\u00c2\u00a0nd the water drains away.<\/p>\n Driving to Droitwich this evening to pick up The Lovely S might be an interesting experience!<\/p>\n Brennig<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It had to happen.
