In the 3rd picture Don, the first big group of trees are ours and you can just see a corner of our house to their left. Our tenants and some friends there say that the flooding is worse than ever but we're sure we've seen it far worse than this. The water is presently just an inch deep on the terrace but we had it lapping at the first step. Mind you, the dogs loved it.  :)

The flooding is not as bad as we have seen in the past. The winter of 09/10 or 11/12 was a lot worse than it is now. We judge it by the water at the bridge by the Keciler/Kaya boundary. They are still driving along the river bed today. The village roads are in very bad condition, there still many construction trucks, cement trucks and pumps coming into the valley over the top road.

Who are your tenants are they Brits?

Yep. Alan & Gill Turner. They own the European Diving Centre. Quite appropriate really.  :)

Went to Kanali this morning, no flooding on the road but the conditions are very bad. It's more like a dirt track in places.

You can see the wheel tracks were they have driven down the river, that's me just staggering away.  :)
