Maybe it's me, but I don't understand that comment Andrew. 2 feet above "normal" summer levels would be a relief. 2 feet above summer 2007 peak would be a catastrophe wouldn't it. Anyway glad your feet are dry. When I came over the Avon on Monday, Tewkesbury Bay looked to be at a very high tide. The level next to the river was well up the trees/bushes which normally denote the bank. I'm in Stourport tonight but haven't been down to the river. Arrived after dark and will leave before light in the morning. It's very windy though. Beeky
