Oh yes, lots of paddling.

Was slightly miffed by Cameron and his 'money no object' promise in regards to the flood victims down south.

There was no such blank cheque for the residents of Hebden Bridge and the rest of the Calder Valley when they were waist deep in water. Many of them only just getting straight when the next lot of floods hit. Lots of businesses suffered, some had to close down in the end, they lost so much. There wasn't any waiver of business tax for them.

Of course...to an extent his are empty promises. Because they're still planning on cutting 500+ jobs from the river and flooding agencies. Maybe if they'd employed a little foresight and not cut back on anti-flood measures and dredging then the Thames area at least would be ok. And maybe if we stopped building on the flood plains things would be a whole lot better.

This, and the image above, are offered without further comment.

I for one embrace our new god Ullr. Broke some awesome trail the last two days. Benny is tired, letting the snow balls melt by standing next to me.
