    Folk did have 2 days warning, but as usual in this country everyone ignores it. 48hrs to move stuff out the house, or upstairs is plenty of time.

    Also 1 in 4 have no contents insurance, for those living on a flood plain, that is just plain stupid.

    Most deaths in this type of weather are caused through stupidity, not the weather.

    when is the rain gonna stop? me too, i am getting fed up of the weather here in england but like everybody says nature is out of our hands. but we also have to take responsibility, if there's a warning given...why can't everyone follow it? too many lives are risked due to people's plain stupidity...and it's got to stop.

    where is this going long awaited hot summer???

    But isn't that folk being lazy again. I'd never buy a house with even the slightest chance of flooding. This is easy to tell by looking at a map, history, and the local area. If people don't do that before spending £100,000's on something, then they only have themselves to blame.
