'When floods become fun' [GF72, p36] sounds fabulous. We live near a canal, a construction which essentially 'tells water what to do'. But in recent years the water has decided not to pay much attention and has started flooding the surrounding pasture. This is not brilliant for the farmers, of course, but it has given rise to some interesting developments in local plant life. We may well have to learn to live with, and appreciate, what nature throws at us.
