    Can't they pump it up north or to Wales?
    FFS!

    We're drowning in Wales

    I'm sick and tired of wringing the sheep out
    Confusion is a natural state of being

        So that's *what* you're doing... And you're naked because you don't want to get your clothes wet...

        Seems plausible.

          And presumably they get wrung out next to a cliff to get rid of the water elsewhere? Nothing to do with them pushing back?

            And obviously he's using his cock to check for hypothermia!

            Here rests the case for the defence, m'lud!

                What reservoirs? My then local water board sold a load of 'em off as building plots after privatisation.

                    The Somerset levels are an area around Glastonbury, Mark, over to Highbridge and to Bridgwater. Big area, used to control flooding. Nearest resevoirs, I think, are Chew Magna and Cheddar. Be a bit of an ask to get the water all the way over that way. Drove through the area late Monday afternoon driving to the South Hams and the levels didn't look that wet to me?

                      Hi Zoid.
                      What happens in General, stays in General.
                      You know what they say about assumptions!
