It has (unusually) been raining steadily nearly all day for several days in Manchester, but do we
complain? Of course not.
Who's complaining?

afternoon that the river banks have burst in Swansea!
Did you confuse that with the Towy breaking its banks, as opposed to the Tawe?
Or was it this?
"Earlier on Wednesday, a flash flood hit the village of Ynysmeudwy near Pontardawe in the Swansea
Valley, sending a wall of water crashing into houses and trapping people inside.
Some ran for their lives as the river Cwmdu burst its banks, sweeping rubble, timber and mud through
the village, demolishing garden walls and smashing windows."

What the article doesn't say is that the cause was a pool of water in some disused mine workings
upstream breaching and pouring down the river. Yep, we still have some [censored] heaps left lying
around in Wales.

Yesterday morning in fact. Very good timing if I say so myself.
