Ah well, at least the garden is getting a water   Thinking of building an ark, anyone want to rent a room?   Hubbys got to go into the olive grove and make a channel to take the water away from the house- we have a lake right up to the house wall :shock:   I would go and dig too but I have no welly boots   I´ve got my hiking boots but I think the mud would go over the top of them :shock:   Last night with the high winds a big picture fell off the outside wall and landed on the dogs kennel, it gave them both a fright (we didn´t hear a thing) and they kicked up a fuss to come in, both refused to go back outside (can´t say I blamed them) they ended up spending the night intheir basket in the bathroom, not a peep out of them then
Roll on summer

Didn't you have a big wash out in the past, too? Or am I making that up?

[Oliveview]

Yep, last November, then it wasn´t seedlings washed away it was part of the foundations at the end of the house :shock:   Who said the rain in Spain stays mainly on the plain??

Oh dear, sounds like might even be a regular feature for you,  :shock: hope not.

We have had an hour with no rain   the hens have dried out, daft things walk about in the rain- they can stay inside in the dry!!  They seem to like muddy puddles to drink out of.  The ´lake´ beside the house has gone down, hubby made a channel to take the water away to the ditch.  I had another look at the seedlings- there is 1 left, in about 2 inches of water!!  I´ll transplant it once the water has gone down so I can get close to it.  We are having to have the log burner going, it is drying out the rainwater that is dripping down the chimney :shock:   The cowl (?) on the top of the chimney isnt doing what it should and stopping the rain! Rain due to ease off tomorrow
