Wet Christmas in England!

Most of England is suffering from floods especially the south west of England where the train service from London to the south west has been severely affected,the main lines from Tiverton practically submerged.
On Christmas Day the fire brigade appeared in the street outside the back of Tony's flat,the basement of the block of flats next door had been flooded so two fire engines were stationed in the road with one of them pumping out the water.

On Boxing Day Cirque Soleil did a 15 minute performance outside Harrods' before the department store opened its doors for the Boxing Day sales,there were also some demonstrators protesting against Harrods' selling fur products.Despite their noisy protests it was still enjoyable watching Cirque Soleil.

The next day we went to a dim sum restaurant in Chinatown where the dim sum was served up from trolleys which meant the food was nice and hot so no cold food this time.
