Last Sunday, when we had some nice sunny weather (and a break from all this rain) I thought I would go for a walk, and well for some reason, I thought that it would be nice to go to Bourne End. And it wouldn’t be too flooded, maybe just a bit muddy.
Gosh was I wrong!
Luckily our favourite house, Old Thatch seemed to be far enough away from the pesky water, but I thought I would share with you the pictures I took on Sunday.
I’m hoping that the water levels go down before May, as there are plans for the Enid Blyton Society to meet there for the day!
Anyway, I hope you enjoy my pictures!
hope it dries up !

Crikey! The FFOs would have a bit of trouble doing their find-outing in that.

Thanks Stef – you might have to turn into a mermaid if it carries on! May is a world away from
February in weather terms so I am sure there will be no problems – don’t blame me if I am wrong!

Is the gate entrance to Old Thatch original to Enid’s time,I wonder?
Also,do the Find Outers books mention any type of flooding at all does anyone know?

The entrance to Old Thatch is the one that was there in Enid’s time Pete. But I’m not sure about your Find Outers questions!

I’ve read all the FFOs and I can’t think of any reference to flooding at all.

Yes,no reference to flooding I agree.I mean,how could Mrs Trotteville’s (do we ever discover her first name) Daffs grow all year round if they were inundated with flood water!!
