just like oz
although on a much smaller scale we have interference and going against local tradition and common sense when the flooding happened in somerset it eventually came out they had stopped dredging the drains and rivers on the flat moorlands - river Parrett hadn't been dredged for years the locals pointed all this out they followed an eu directive and decided voles were more important and must not upset the natural life Before then dredging had been done almost annually - you would often see the machinery in the fields etc I know the area very well They started dredging again and then low and behold now they have stopped it this year coz of natural sensitivity or something basically the civil servants fkd up again |

Most people seem to remember that when they were kids the summers were hotter and the winters were colder. Of course they're just memories unsubstantiated by facts.
