Flooding in North Wales

Don't tell me you didn't go over the Rhuddlan bridge when you were there.

Not sure crax, there were a few uncollapsed bridges though.

Where's that boy, we're starting to get updates from everywhere but North Wales now?

I'm going to get Pandora on to him if he doesn't get this thread sorted out.

No offence if you live there but Shropshire's just a dull meaningless stretch of nothingness.

Try cycling by the Long Mynd or the Stiperstones.

"The driver of a Land Rover Defender 4x4 had to keep his foot jammed on the brake pedal for about 25 minutes"
Do those things not come equipped with handbrakes then?

They do, but I've just checked the handbook for my brother's Freelander and it specifically says that when re-enacting the end scene of The Italian Job, you should keep your foot on the brake pedal and scream like a girl until help comes.

(Nah, not really, but it should say "don't be a clot and try driving The Burway or Asterton Bank when the road is a sheet of ice".)

It has its uses, it keeps Birmingham away from Wales, you know they'd just fight if they got together.

Personal anecdote?

Given it was posted by 'subaqua', I'd be disappointed if it wasn't.

Keeping porn under the bed is a novel concept these days. it's not the 70's anymore. Come to think of it do grot magazines even exist these days?

Oh and Shropshire is lovely in the west. The east is a bit dull however.

Can we have some pictures of the east please? (definitely none of the west, that would be far too exciting.)

Is it a bit darker now?

I see you've been here before.

One of the most beautiful phrases in the English language is "blue remembered hills." Anyone who knows south Shropshire will know what it means.
