[iKellyannee]

[ciaran212]

[iBeep2009]

Alldry and sunny by Friday - everything cleaned up and beautiful sunshine - great turnout for the fabulous airshow too.

[69salford69]

People in Japan are like ARE YOU TAKING THE PISS

[MrA17T]

[MrBoxingTiger]

Ebony Day <3

[Sadgrase22]

That looks horrendous. Anyway, I'm here because of Ebony Day :)

[curtistbh]

oh yeah, this looks real bad :/

[curtistbh]

ebony day brought me here.. :)

[stephanielblaney]

Walking home on results day through that was fun :D

[retardeddolphin909]

The result of idiots building in flood plains

[eDemocracyUK]

@retardeddolphin909 England is the most densely packed country in Europe, and like the 4th most densely packed country IN THE WORLD

If you don't build on flood plains we will have 10 people in each house

[vortexlisa]

@eDemocracyUK 4th? Hardly according to every list I found googling. >_>; One said we're 54th.. which is kind of weird, I mean the place is bloody tiny! Wonder if I searched wrong. lol.

[eDemocracyUK]

@vortexlisa Maybe your search resulted in data for the United Kingdom as a whole. England is 5th most densely populated country in the World (i think)

1) Bangladesh 1083 people per kilometer, 2) Taiwan 639 people-per-kilometer, 3) South Korea 487 people-per-kilometer, 4) Netherlands 402 people-per-kilometer, 5) England 395 people-per-kilometer

[CaLeDee]

I've always known water was out to get us.. no one believed me! Well who's laughing now?? I AM, THAT'S WHO!

[TheDiverdaz]

A cant believe nee bodies on inflatables on that class lazy river, boring gets!

[tom1161]

[DvmFilmz]

[mariekatetaylor2011]

it wasnt even that bad in poole people were say the dophin center was closed and when i got there it was fine and the hight street wasnt even that bad :/

[yazanmohsen]

Stupid English weather !!!!!!

[MilesBOX]

Save the lions.

[iBeep2009]

Hope they bothered to get insurance for the air show :)

[iBeep2009]

Live in bournemouth - bent council allowing all their mates planning applications for infill housing caused this - there is no where for water to drain anymore! The gas main exploded in Westover Road due to council's failure to repair,so I guess we'll all be paying the bill for that too!

ASDA at central station was evacuated - but their roofs beenleaking badly since it was built - only a matter of time before it caves in :)

[manychefsbroth]

@iBeep2009 I couldn't comment on Bournemouth Planning but thanks for your comment :-)

[arripay]

@iBeep2009 ...or maybe it could have something to do with the unusually torrential rain happening at the same time as a high tide, meaning the storm drains couldn't clear it ...nah what the hell, let's blame the council.

[manychefsbroth]

@arripay Nicely put :-)

[afrancis118]

Terrible

It was flooding in my back garden.

[manychefsbroth]

@afrancis118 Sorry to hear you were effected by the floods. I hope it hasn't caused too much damage!

[TheRelentless11]

on the open day of the air show ! :(

[manychefsbroth]

@TheRelentless11 I know! What a shame for Bournemouth Council and the tourists that made the effort to visit Bournemouth for the Air Festival.

[Shaz1713]

i was on the bus while this was happening earlier and actually saw the hole in the road open up, it stranded one bus!

[manychefsbroth]

@Shaz1713 Wow, that must have been a frightening sight. I'm glad nobody was hurt.

[Eleanorminblack]

@manychefsbroth I was on holiday two years ago around those gardens, glad I'm not there now

[manychefsbroth]

@Eleanorminblack I bet! You'd have got very soggy this year. It's sad to see the beautiful Bournemouth gardens ruined by the weather but I'm sure Bournemouth Council will get it back to its former glory.

[mashedrats65]

This is why i pay my Council tax, so this can happen ! Maybe they can raise the cost of parking in the city centre again to cover the costs ! Not like there high enough already

[seikism]

Thank god i put my cat in the bin !! At least he's safe !!

[FuckingEnforcer]

@seikism

You put your cat in the bin? What the fuck

[seikism]

@FuckingEnforcer I know !! i always think its best to plan ahead !!

[MrLeeandkirsty]

it just looks like Manchester on a normal summer day.

Hardly a flood more of a large puddle.

[manychefsbroth]

@MrLeeandkirsty its all relative :-P

[seikism]

Got rid of all that dog crap anyway !!

[Harlowkiss]

Yikes! Great video but sad too

[manychefsbroth]

@Harlowkiss Yeah, it is very sad :-( Feel so sorry for poor old Bournemouth Council!

[Currykid98]

Respond to this video... i live in bournemouth

[Currykid98]

@Harlowkiss i live in bournemouth

[Harlowkiss]

@Currykid98 So do I.

[Pecobanton]

Damn man, that looks bad.

[manychefsbroth]

@Pecobanton It was really bad - when I got there and took this video it wasn't as bad as it had been, apparently it was a lot higher! The worst part was possibly the smell. The sewage had been flooded and rushed back up filling a large part of the area with a stinking mess!

[22Crystalline22]

The Air Show curse

[manychefsbroth]

@22Crystalline22 Unfortunately it seems so!
