Flood refugees

While building an ark has been one option for UK inhabitants, having just enjoyed the wettest June since records began, my parents decided to take to the skies rather than the waters and arrived this afternoon for a two week stay.  It was all very last minute, which is very unlike them.  We Davieses are planners, so the fact that they're being impulsive shows just how bad the weather has got.

They spent some of my inheritance upgrading their seats, so arrived very happy and relaxed.  They were a little scared of the large glowing yellow thing in the sky, but then remembered they'd seen the sun once before, on a package holiday to Corfu in the 1970s.  A quick trip around the Creek and they soon found their bearings.  Then it was back home for a cup of tea, and to find out how much Cadbury's chocolate, Marmite and Branston Pickle they'd managed to smuggle in.

Spot the English tourists.

The haul.  And, wow, it's a good one!
