Impending doom

That is if you believe the TV weather presenters. OK it will rain, it may be heavy, there may be lying water, but the chances are we won't be flooded. Everything is such a drama these days. PS, don't forget your umbrella, how did we ever cope?
Up until today I would have been afraid to venture out without factor 50 coated over all exposed skin. When you get to my age you know you will die of something, so why worry. Or is that SILLY.
