Thank you so very much for all the donations on the go fund me. It’s amazing how friends family and former customers have been so generous. The insurance will be a nightmare, but I have a broker so not my nightmare. Now that I’ve taken all I can from it is now a bad memory. Going to look for another motor so I can get fishing again as soon as possible. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There was no one in the pound so we just went in and took it. A cop came by and told us every car had been gone through by looters. Because ours was full of shite they didn’t take the suitcase of clothes but my tool boxes must have been irresistible. The flood didn’t discriminate and there were some very expensive cars there. Even the campervan next to me . Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It was worth looking for and finding the car. My roof rack is £500 , we saved some sunglasses. I had an old driver license that may be useful, saved some clothes and my favourite water bottle. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Interested in the Dewalt if it’s not too used and it’s what I need.Back in the uk late November Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The insurance comes from a big pot. It’s impossible for insurance companies to bear the brunt so they all put into a big one , I think CSS or something like that. My car was fully comp but the contents aren’t covered. We have “ExPats” insurance and it turns out it doesn’t cover you for the country you live in, so if I decide to have a holiday in San Sebastián or Cadiz or Mallorca I’m not covered, so only my car and maybe the cost of getting home. The go fund me has been amazing and friends, family and customers have raised a lot to replace some of my tools. Should cover all of my lost Dewalt battery stuff. I’m blown away by people’s generosity at helping out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi Mal. It seems it was literally luck of the draw. The diverted river did indeed save the city centre. We got home yesterday via bus. It took a winding route through the paddy fields area. That area seems to have been ok ish as it’s designed for water. The A7 will remain closed for weeks. The people of Valencia, especially the young are out in there thousands with brooms and buckets, and the farmers are all there with tractors and diggers. Many places don’t have water and internet. The city itself is business as usual. It’s good your friends have checked. Find out about power and water before you go if you can. Today, Monday, I’ll begin the ballache of cars , clothes, tools etc, but it’s not lost on me how devastating this is for Spain. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

A few cuts and bruises. We were very lucky in many ways. Several hundred dead weren’t so lucky.
