Snooky:
Only a few today
Then this Merc came round the corner and started off well, till it got deep
Bit further round the corner
I was only looking to avoid the traffic that built up south of Reading due to the flooded roads... :lol:
And only drove through the big one a few times once the cars were out of the way :wink:
In laws drove down from York, got to Jnct12 of the M4 in 4 hours, then another 4 to get to Tadley due to all the flooding and stuck people.

Looks like fun! I must live somewhere that is too high up as i never see any decent puddles :(
and a 2x2 would be a 2 wheel drive bicycle ;). most cars are 4x2's (4 wheels, 2 driven) ;)
HSimmo:
Just got in after rescuing 2 mates from 2 different floods around henley and a quite hypothermic woman on the way home.
Never seen flooding like it. Now why didn't I buy that snorkle last month when it flooded!

Not sure if the guy tried to drive through this or became stranded some other way but the sign clearly reads 6' deep? Why is it some 'inexperienced' 4x4 drivers think they can drive through anything? At best - even with a snorkel- 3 feet is the safe maximum in STILL WATER. In fast flowing water the best advice is to stay out.
