How's life with the floodings down your way Aqua? We've been allright but in nearby towns streets have been flooded, especially in Boxmeer and Asten.

My town is ok, no flooding, but I've heard some other part of the country has had some problems. I don't really know since I don't watch the news and
I haven't been outside for about a week. But it's pretty cold and wet for early June.

You may've heard that the Louvre is closed now, so they can save the artworks in the lower areas near the river... I remember how high the Seine level
was when we went there.
There've been a number of casualties so far, 7 in Germany and one in Belgium, and a number in France as well. The castle Chambord has its feet in the
water now. Gorgeous photos but I hope there won't be any more damage... always hoped to visit that someday...

I didn't know anything about all that, I've spent most of my week reading, watching movies and playing the guitar. It sucks though, I hope it's gonna
stop soon.

That's a fun way to spend a week of course... mind you I preferred looking out the window over TV. Amazing storm... wish my camera got a better hold
of it...

Yeah, sometimes I do that too, watch the storm, lightnings and rain, when the sky looks quite apocalyptic.

Weather forecast said it would be dry this weekend, but a thunderstorm with a lot of rain and hail just came down and the sky's still rumbling.

Yeah, it should pretty sunny here this week too, but looking by the window, it doesn't seem so.

Today was steaming weather though... when it gets real hot here, there's usually high humidity levels and a storm round the corner. Right now there's
a storm in nearby Geldrop.

After a year of full El Niņo we've now been on La Niņa watch for a month. It's been raining here like mad as well.
Turns out that dentist the other week was only giving me emergency treatment and I had to go back again last Thursday to get the nerve taken out
properly. After almost two hours he had to stop because the anaesthetic was wearing off. There's still some nerve left in there and I have to go back
later this week, but I am feeling significantly better than I was a week and a half ago.
Swot vac is going okay so far.
zappa.com is back with no explanation.
I've been in Paris before when the Seine was washing up onto the footpaths along the banks.

Ouch... Glad you're feeling better though!
Dad's recovering slowly from the flu I gave him. Unfortunately, when my sister came round, she seemed to have caught the same bug. Beh!

That's something I've never understood. I lived with girl like that, once, she always decided we had to clean the flat around 6 or 7 PM, it's too
late, let's do it tomorrow morning.

Still busy swotting, exams are looming. Got another tooth that's been having problems for a while and that's being dealt with on Thursday. Hopefully
that's the last major health thing for a while.
