23rd October 2019


Dave's Birthday!
We have to go to Beziers as Dave has an appointment with the rhumatologue, but also plan to visit our favourite Indian restaurant in the evening! 
On the 22nd we had horrendous rain/thunderstorm, also loads overnight. So Dave rang to see if the rhumatologie himself had arrived in Beziers before we set off... he had, so about 11:00 we started out... These are some pictures from our journey.


Bridge at lamalou, facing towards St  Pons. 


This is facing upstream, and yes those are floating trees heading towards us, this bridge was designed to direct floating trees over the top, not for photographers.. 


Same river, banks burst here. 


This car had spun into the ditch. 



Insurance claims galore! 



A garage forecourt. 


One of his more precarious placed vehicles! 
This was several hours after the flooding had subsided. Still something happening down this road. 



Those who know this road, will know this moat which is about 2m deep, is normally almost dry. It did a fine job of protecting the industrial estate. 



Roundabout just before the airport!
