Rising tide

Apparently its the worst September weather since 1981 and we have had more heavy rain but it must be getting better as we can almost see the summit of the Bonsai Mountain. We got a call to tell us that our old house was on the news underwater victim of a flash flood. As we now live half way up this piece of rock we should survive this deluge, meanwhile the Oracle woke to find the stream had diverted into his workshop. The pigs are still on their life raft and refusing to get off as they like the ships biscuits found in the survival pack.
