Private Island... (Patreon)

I’ve been caught out in the Leicestershire floods.
I had to move the van twice last night as the water reached the tops of the axles and my diesel heater exhaust started bubbling.
Until we reached this high spot and there was nowhere else to go.
My mate’s narrowboat became unreachable so we had to campout 2 up in here and both phone’s went off with a crazy localised alert from the emergency services, didn’t know they could do that but either way it came a few hours too late.
Needless to say it wasn’t the best night’s sleep. 😅
Thankfully the water stopped lifting around 2am after the water was lapping my wheels again. It’s receding quite quickly today so hopefully in a day or two we can get out, but plenty of supplies on board & my new “neighbour” has sorted us out for water so for now all there is to do is sit and wait it out on our own private island. 🏝️
