dna	I read about the London theater roof collapsing as well. The news mentioned that The other theaters are being checked due to their age. This flooding may have a impact in that area as well. Hopefully her Majesty speaks of this to console her subjects. -=-=- DNA

Jayenkai	Terrible floods, through the South of England. Hope everyone’s ok, down there.. DD?! -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

shroom_monk	Unless DD has since moved, Birmingham and surroundings seem ok at the moment. We're in the middle, not the south, so while we've had lots of rain and wind, there isn't any flooding. -=-=- A mushroom a day keeps the doctor away... Keep It Simple, Shroom!

Jayenkai	I heard Kent on the news, and immediately thought of DD. He was at Kent Uni, wasn't he? Didn't he stick around, there? Or am I going old and senile? Could be that!! shrugs -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

shroom_monk	I thought he was at Birmingham Uni, but I could be wrong and it could be somewhere else. As I remember it he recently started a PhD? --- A quick bit of internet stalking later... it's Birmingham. -=-=- A mushroom a day keeps the doctor away... Keep It Simple, Shroom!

CodersRule	I would have bet on the University of Kent, too... He worked on the Greenfoot site, which is a Kent project. It looks like he went there, at least for awhile; I figured he was probably an undergrad over there before he went to pursue more post-grad education.

dna	The Queen gave her speech and showed images of workers. Tose might have been the ones near the floods since she mentioned them. -=-=- DNA

shroom_monk	The Queen's speech is recorded a few days in advance, so I wouldn't be so sure. -=-=- A mushroom a day keeps the doctor away... Keep It Simple, Shroom!

steve_ancell	I live near the South/East coast, been high speed winds here but I've not personally witnessed any bad floods yet. Thank **** I live sort of high up. \|edit\| My shed has held together during the wind so far, I hope it stays that way \|edit\|

Jayenkai	Wind's completely obliterated one of our fence panels, but that's about as bad as it got. We've been pretty lucky, considering the amount of chaos in the area. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

Jayenkai	Hmmm.. Woken up at 4:30am by a drip-drip-drip.. ... On my FACE.. Will have to check the bedroom ceilings later, but don't exactly want to go waking everyone up. It's probably just something getting in around the chimney, since my bed's up against the chimney breast. Or at least I hope so, anyway.. Nnnngh... -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''
