'Bowser' is the satisfying sort of word that you don't get to use very much, so you have to make the most of it when you can.... :thumbsup:

Yep, there are fuel bowsers too.

I thought I would post some photos of the floods in my town Alcester, nr Stratford On Avon. All the waters gone now but it has left a lot of people and small businesses with wrecked posssessions.

Is that Will Shakespeare in the red kayak? :lol:

Seems to me he was from Stratford On Avon, nah,
probably not, he would look older than that.

And yes Lynn, it does kindof resemble Minden in June. :lol:

My wife and I stayed at the Billesley Manor near Statford during our honeymoon many years ago. I hope it is not under water. Lovely place.

Billesley Manor is very posh and dry. We drive by and wonder what it would be like to visit such a well to do place. :envious: :lol: If it ever floods high enough to reach the manor then we shall all be in need of Noah's Ark. :lol:
