Oh dear!!!
Looks asthough your in for a very wet time and knowing the farmers NEED the rain doesn't always make it any better.

That soup sounds lovely though. I've just bought a new slow cooker (6.5ltr) so that I can make bigger portions and then put seperate meals into freezer, - just incase we get the bad weather they're predicting and cann't get out ... atleast we'll have some meals to heat up and fall back on if roads do get blocked.

Stay warm and hope the sun comes out again before too long.
