    Have you all seen this? Its at its worst i think in Kilnacourt on the floodplains. It is so scarey anymore rain and it will flood into the estate. I looked out my window and see that the fields and the river are one!!!

    Also have you seen the flooding in monasterevin at the little bridge. The canal and the river are flooding the banks. :eek:

    Was it that long ago since the big flood ? Makes me feel pretty damn old. You're right though, nowhere near as bad this time... Doubt that makes any of the newbies to Port feel any better about it though :)
