Hi Maria,
I’m sorry I haven’t written for ages, but we’ve had some problems here. You know we moved
house last year. Well, we now live in Grantly. It’s a lovely village and much nicer – and larger –
than the village where we used to live. Before we moved, Dad checked out the area for flooding
problems because two years ago there were some bad floods in a village five miles from here. He
was told that there was no risk of floods in this area. Our house is a long way from the river and it
was considered to be really safe. But guess what? Last month it rained and rained for days. The
river got higher and higher and then it flooded. The whole area was underwater – our house, too.
The water was about twenty centimetres deep in our downstairs rooms. We had to stay with
friends for two weeks. The water went away after a few days, but it was a disaster. All the
furniture downstairs and our carpets were ruined. We couldn’t keep anything: our TV, the
cooker, everything has been thrown out. Luckily, we have insurance, so we will get some money
back. But we’ve all lost expensive things, like my laptop.
The sun is shining now, but I know it’s going to take a long time before everything in the house is
repaired. We’re staying with my aunt and uncle while we clean the house and decorate it. So I’m
afraid I can’t invite you to come and stay with me at the moment! You know, they teach us at
school about climate change and what it means, but you don’t really understand how serious it is
until something like this happens. I hope you live on a hill!
Write soon and send me your news.
With Love, Bess
