hope it didnt take to long to get home
hope it didnt take to long to get homeall other buildings were evacuated. it took my sister 6 hours to get home last night. No ones in today but me 
and my cousin was stuck in a building all night and the bridge next to it is about to collapse. If you live in sheffield you might have seen it on the news. Its the brewery and the river has burst and flooded it. I feel right bad for them.

Thats river is awful for flooding, my nanan and grandads house is always surrounded when it floods and they cant get out. If that damn goes there buggerd!! my nanan cant get up the stairs either!! I wish i didnt come to work now, theres 4 people on my team in and im sure i could have tried to get them out if i didnt come in!
i supose. I forgot my phone today aswell so they cant even get to me if they need to. its so worryinground our end was horrendous - we are without hot water, electricty, my dad had to be rescued from work the water was up to his waist 
the RAF helicopter was rescuing people from round my area - i cannot believe it, i have never ever seen anything like it before in my life!!!

The worst thing is it was fine in the morning, just a bit of rain then every where was closeing down, flooding, blowing up...Its crazy. Our power went out 2 days ago but i didnt think anything of it... The pictures on bbc news southyorkshire are horrible!
The pictures on bbc news southyorkshire are horrible!some one i know from hillsborough said the same missG, they have to wait another few days. Our power was out for about 2 hours but came back on because they had a back up line or something. Some one said 85,000 homes are with out power and 40,000 have been fixed. Thats a lot of homes
i heard it was 20,000 homes in sheffield without power its ridiculous, that means im going to have to drive at 6am to my dads every morning for a shower and something to eat before going to work!!! even our cooker doesnt work, the frdige, lighting, hot water - we have nothing!!!!!!!!

Really really sorry to hear this. It does sound dreadful. One way my Mum used to cope with the eating thing during power cuts was to use her camping stove. Might be worth investing in one (I don't think they're dear) just in case. From what I hear, weather like this latest spell is likely to be on the increase, owing to global warming.
Do hope that they manage to restore power soon and that the damage is not too extensive.
