Too much Rain

Posted by The Carnival Glass Society (UK) Ltd on April 29, 2012 at 6:40 PM


In April last year on the website we featured April Showers vases in all sizes and colours and then as if by magic there was not a drop of rain in sight for the whole month. In the UK we had the warmest driest April on record. 

On the 5th of  April this year we started a hosepipe ban and then as if by magic again it started to rain. Rain,rain,rain,rain and it hasn’t stopped. One day we had 165% of our rain for the year and I see on the news that we have over 200 flood warnings across the country, and sadly today we have heard of a man that lost his life in the floods.



Well if April Showers vases can stop the rain then I am sure a Rain Drops bowl can work some magic, so I am going to leave one on the home page for a bit and see what happens. We need some sunshine!
