    I enjoyed that. What a sea. And a terrific wind. My MiL waived the end of her life in a Scarborough nursing home and so we visited a few times, all in winter. I enjoyed seeing it again in adversity.

    In October 1982 or 1983 I was working at Stansted airport in Essex, and we had almost exactly the same weather then as we have now. Everywhere was flooded. I'm in Cambridge now and it's been raining stair rods almost continuously for the las two days. If you really don't need to travel, then stay at home. Thanks for posting this, stay safe everyone.

      exactly, weather like this is normal in uk from late autumn till spring. Be careful and look out for those in need and it is no different from any other year except that now we have nudge units and other psyops units directly targeting the uk public to spread unnecessary fear and take our eyes off what the unelected politicians are doing in parliaments behind our backs.
