Padstow Reflecting
Editors note: does this make your eyes go funny too? The image is flipped so it's upside down, which makes your brain think that you're looking up to the boats, and that doesn't make sense because for that to be up you'd need to be under water.

Apparently this form of assistance from Ewok was not appreciated.

Dog walk wading
At what point does a walk become a wade?
[Ed: don't ever enter flood water, it's dangerous. The RNLIs Flood Rescue Manual has a section on the study of water and hazards that explains why.]

2024 Floods Three
January blues beating idea: let's ride a loop along the river and see what's happening. First stop Shillingford.
Boats surrounded.
A little bit of flow through the arches.
But if you look downstream it just looks, well, "full".
After a near miss heading to Benson the road through Crowmarsh Battle looked sketchy.
Wallingford was looking damp too.
In some spots the river is now several fields wide.

2024 Floods Two
Yup, it got worse over night.
"Wow" said Ewok. I have to admit that he did look a little shocked.
Yes. Lake Gerald is back

2024 Floods
We walked down to see how the river was treating the temporary parking for the lock keeper.
Not great.
"I'll sit here for scale" said Yogi.
Ewok wasn't impressed either.

A new year, a new walk. Seeking out the dry-ish routes above Ewelme.
