Flood warning at Fairburn
After an unsuccessful trip to Junction 32 to find a new birding coat we swung by Fairburn ... yes, without binoculars so we wouldn't be too conspicuous! The water across the road should have warned us. The closed visitor centre should have warned us. The mallards sitting on a fence should have warned us!
Some polite visitor from Sussex DID warn us. They had been given a 3 hour flood alert and advised to clear the site. After our half hour walk around the boardwalk playing lift the flap with a five year old we noticed more water across the road ... and left!
A little pic of a van running alongside the car park entrance ... I just cannot get it the right way round!!!!!!!!
