Blimey, what a strange week that was, first there was the rain, the endless, monotonous rain, days and days of rain which lead to the inevitable floods, our thoughts go out to all those homes and businesses which have been affected, (let's hope The Oak is back up and running for Weds 4th July cos we're gigging there)

And then on Wednesday a fire ripped through the Somerfield store in Chesterfield's Town Centre bringing shopping to a halt and displacing even more people (Honestly, the amount of lost people I saw looking for a Pub on Tues/Weds, just shows either we're a community with a drink problem, or maybe the pub trade isn't in a much turmoil as they would have us believe). But I've just had a look at the river and it seems reasonably normal again, although there are plenty of sandbags in and around the affected area. Let's hope the light rain which is currently falling doesn't get any heavier.

A classic Deep Purple rock song springs to mind! Can't play or mention it or it's a £1 fine!
