Isn't Gloucstershire home to Bristol (the city)? The Midlands get hit really hard too.
Bristol is technically split between the counties of Gloucestershire and Somerset in terms of geography.
But legally, it has county status as it's own.
Gloucestershire only has one city, Gloucester.
Somerset has the cities of Bath and Wells.
And yeah, the Midlands can get hit pretty bad.
South East also takes quite a regular beating.
And there is some flooding in the South West, where I live, but generally I don't think it's as bad as other areas in the country.
In the 2007 floods someone paddled past my house in a kayak, really was funny.
I know someone who went through pretty much the same thing in Hull, their house got flooded though, sewage got washed into it and it wasn't right again for years.
The Army even came and placed sandbags all over.
It's pretty horrible stuff.
When my old house was flooded it took the full brunt of the flooding compared to the 4 or 5 other houses that are next to it (It's a tiny little set of houses on a road junction. Doesn't even have status as a hamlet or anything).
Since it was down below hills and fields that are used for sheep and cow-farming we mostly got mud and waste from those that came into the house.
Fire brigade came and pumped out most of the water, and we were given a large number of sandbags by the Council.
But they didn't prove overly effective the second time we were flooded (although it wasn't on as bad a scale that time).
