We have to be thankful here in Middlesbrough that we have escaped the floods but just a little way a way in York they are experiencing terrible floods. The Ouse breaks its banks in York now and again but I have never seen the extent of flooding there is this time. We must all take time to pray for everyone and to give what we can. This is the effects of global warming and we are now paying the price for our excesses and negligence in caring for our planet. Much love to all where ever you are and I pray that what ever hardship you are experiencing will ease and you will be visited with good fortune - JayneAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07597524524858733186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-87066209897601705512015-12-28T11:51:06.799+00:002015-12-28T11:51:06.799+00:00Hello Barb, I feel so sad and sorry for the people...Hello Barb, I feel so sad and sorry for the people affected by the floods, they are in my prayers.

Unfortunately this loss of livestock was common and often these were livestock in lamb or in calf so farmers have effectively list their harvest for next year. Thousands of sheep were drowned due to their heavy wool when wet? My friend had 43 cows in calf washed away by the river. Fortunately, 40 of them were found washed many miles away scattered over a vast distance. They were all in calf and any damage to young is not yet known.

Here in Somerset it was bad two years ago and unfortunately the water took weeks to go down and in lots of places it wasn't that deep but it still caused so much damage, and although the area it covered was immense they were areas of relatively low population unlike this present problem. I'm sure those people who have been affected could do with as much help as we all can give. xPathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02889103826921393113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-91387019904660288202015-12-27T23:18:55.813+00:002015-12-27T23:18:55.813+00:00Hi Pam did see your we message on yesterday's ...Hi Pam did see your we message on yesterday's blog left you wee reply thanks my lovely...Dot . xxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13775023439020643243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-48325940285781987912015-12-27T23:15:39.428+00:002015-12-27T23:15:39.428+00:00Although the rain here in Fife has been battering ...Although the rain here in Fife has been battering down and never ending we are very lucky here that all we need is wellies and a raincoat.<br />My love and prayers go to all the families affected and will follow your link and give a wee donation to help these poor people even if it's all we can do it will make us feel we tried. <br />Take care...Dot..xxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13775023439020643243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-7234987297863728852015-12-27T22:58:47.141+00:002015-12-27T22:58:47.141+00:00Barbara you have done it again, as with the French...Barbara you have done it again, as with the French situation earlier this year you manage to capture the situation in your artwork. I have been watching the news channel most of the day, its horrible what everyone is having to deal with. I have family and good friends in the affected areas and as yet haven't heard from them today, just hope they are safe. The volunteers, mountain rescue, fire service, army etc are doing the best, putting their own lives at risk as well. Your thoughts are with everyone 'up north'. Thank you for the link, well be doing my donation.
