Flood Update – Boxing Day Cup Race cancelled

FLOOD UPDATE

Newton went down on Sunday afternoon and the lane was 2.5 feet deep. (Mama said it’s 3 feet high and rising).

There is no chance of the race being able to take place on Boxing Day

Not surprisingly the bore hole has been flooded and the macerator pump has been turned off so don’t use the toilets.

Do not drink directly from the kitchen cold tap and make sure you boil any tap water for making coffee and tea.

Bottled water will available.for cold drinks(if the delivery boat gets through or perhaps the milk float will!)

Once the water has receded the bore hole will be cleaned and sterilized and everything should get back to normal.

It’s too late to ask Santa for a set of waders but enjoy your Christmas Day.
