anyone get cault out by the weather! i was sitting watching the F1 grand prix! it was just about to start when it started pissing it down!!!! i walked out of the house to check the car and on my driveway the water was past my anchle! walked out to the road and the water was halfway up my wheels! the car was actulay moving and was being pushed down the street! i grabbed my keys and ran out! the water was almost up to my knees!i jumped in the car and it started! i couldnt belive it! and headed for high ground! luckely i havnt got my supra-doopra yet and it was my little mk1 MR2 but the car was under 5inches of water! managed to get it sorted to day and it seems to be fine! but my sound system is done for! :( so might need to get a car sooner than i thought!

 

i called the police coz i live on the coast road in Newcastle! and in the dip under the roundabout down he road had flooded so deep that there was 2 cars in the water up to there roofs! (a celica and a audi!) and people were getting down the dip, turning round and driving the wrong way up the motorway in to the trafic coming along the road, to use the slip road off the motorway! so i had to stand in the middle of the road for 3 hours with a high viz jacket to stop people dieing! coz the police were too stretched to come! all because it rained for 30mins! but atleast it didnt get in to the house! so we are lucky! plus i got interviewed by tyne tees TV! :) still gutted about my car tho!
