i missed the worst of it (I was there before 7 am, as I had to go to Teesside to pick partner up from the airport, suntan & all....) although it was pretty bad then - apparently later in the day it was pouring through molly's stable door
mostly, it's under the rubber matting - which is another advantage of rubber matting. but the bed is a disaster area and of course I didn't have any more so inthe morning I shall be chucking out what's left (£13 worth of easibed....) and putting shavings back down. hoping the rain doesn't get that bad again for a while..
partner said, can we not sweep the water out? not without lifting the rubber mats, of course, and no way I was doing that
Molly went in the arena with the other 2 mares whilst we all mucked out this evening, it was a lot drier by that stage
If tomorrow remains as it is this evening, she's going to have to go out - legs are filling with being in so long. this box is not as big as box at harbour house so she can't move about as much, i haven't had her with filled legs before.
and i left her with her outdoor on (lightweight!) to protect against any further damp from below!

I am having sympathy pains except for the fact that my stable is on a hill, so no flooding there. Still within the space of about 2 hours we have already had 2 1/2" of rain with more to come as the storm gets closer. Definitely no water shortage around here, apparently.
Hope you dry out soon. Enough is enough already!!
Sounds like you are worse than us, but then I am stuck on top of a hill. Still raining here now.

That's not good, how did it manage to come in and flood the stables?
Hope that you dry out soon!
