Flood Christmas


That's the Christmas presents wrapped - the three households in the family kampong all conspired to limit ourselves to a tenner a head this year to prevent present envy and simplify matters. Hay has started planning the Christmas 'tree'. Most of the Christmas food has been bought and anything with a use-by date of before the 26th is in the freezer. We all agree we hate Christmas with the exception of the social aspect. TV is at an all-time nadir, the shops will be zoos and all forms of transport will be a nightmare. 

I wonder if the floods are a Godsend to certain sections of the population and parliament - flood defence barriers can be erected all over the country, doubling up as anti-migrant barriers.
