Saturday 21 July

Our new rented flat is on the first floor so we are currently immune from flooding.

However a friend phones from Hammersmith of all places to say his basement flat flooded yesterday. The brother-in-law in Tewkesbury spent the night making sarnies and soup for people stuck inside the town unable to get out, whilst waiting for his wife, who was stuck outside the town unable to get in!

So, hardly a day to take seriously what little racing remains, certainly not at early prices. I'd go to Newport summer show instead but can't be arsed to get stuck in the car park! Think I'll watch the golf and Tour instead and wonder at another betting day lost.

Strange times. My deepest sympathy to anyone caught up in it.
