Switzerland hit by floods & landslides (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/4175944.stm)
:eek:

Mrs Pie & I we're there until Sunday - looks like we just beat he worst of it Think we saw the start of it, driving through some of the maddest torrential rain I've ever seen from Luzern to Bern last Friday. When we left on Sunday it had been bucketing down non stop for a whole day.
Our friends dad has had to cancel a folklore festival in Interlaken as a result - he's been organising it for 5 years :(

............and a lot of Austria and southern Germany. Flooding swung the German elections last time, might even swing it this time too.
