I get water in the games room most years, 'tis a nuisance. The water table here is so high, plus it comes through the slatebed from the pond.
I dug a drainage ditch a couple of years ago, complete with yellow pipes etc, and its not been as bad since, but the walls still suffer with damp.
Just paint the floor pale blue, and halfway up the walls too. Then paint the top half of the walls in white, and you have an indoor pool!

We have loads of flooded fields round here and lottie is standing in water on one side as I am in the dip so it comes off both sides.....think I might turn it into a paddy field....

Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool Even a journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step!
I 'm really sorry for all you suffering from flooding. Luckily we're above the local flood plain , mind you the lawn is getting very boggy like and the racetrack that the dog has created is looking more like a pond. Haven't been up the lottie for a fes days so fingers crossed that it's ok and my shallots haven't floated away.
Will we ever get any decent weather .

Lots of flooding round here. Our local river (The Mole) was bursting its banks at Brockham this lunchtime. There's a poor soul living at the bottom of the horses' lane with a lake outside their house and under the garage, thanks to a poorly maintained ditch over the road. I always feel really bad passing through the lake, as it sends a ripple of water into their drive, no matter how slow I go. Hope everyone's houses are ok. My ponies have got webbed feet, now, I think...
I'm on clay land here so we have mud mud mud the greenhouse has 6inshes of water in it and the ground is so wet i can't get my fruit trees planted WHEN are we going to get some decent weather ?
My village is on the top edge of valley, the river in the valley is up and over its banks, we now live over looking a vast lake, but this is normal for here.
Take care all!
Our stream broke its banks yesterday into our neighbour's field, the banks of the stream are 6ft high above the normal stream level. We also have a lake for an orchard. Luckily we are higher than the orchard
