We have had an awful lot of rain this year, and December has been no exception. Oxfordshire is flooded in parts, as evidenced by this photo I took at the bottom of Cherwell Street near the town centre. Luckily I am well above the water level, before my house gets flodded half the town would need to be submerged. Oxford is surrounded by floodplains, where housebuilding is prohibited, and as you can see, with good reason!
I took a quick walk across Magdalen Bridge this afternoon and took these photos of the Angel and Greyhound meadows. Note the submerged waste bins, benches, and children's playground! Well, at least there isn't going to be another hose pipe ban any time soon!
