Big Storm

There was a huge storm last night here in Birmingham (not as big as the one in London on Tuesday but still big). The garage and verandah thing gotflooded so we all cleared it out this morning and swet out the muck and moved the carpet to make a little river for the water to flow down next time it floods.
Jen and John came last night, they seem really nice. They brought some flowers from them and Martin and Geoff because none of them can (probably) make it on Sunday for the 90th.
Martin had 'a fall' on Monday or Tuesday so is in hospital. The doctor isn't going to let him go home, instead insisting he go to a nursing home or whatever. This is why he can\'t make it, and Geoff has taken time off work to see him so won't be able to get off Sunday(probably).
Jan is also working really hard (when it rains it pours in the costume industry) so she will only be able to pop in for a bit as well. Adam and I are going to put together something, Mum suggested poetry but I don't know what to put in. We'll work somehting out...
