Yup, lol.

The picture is of Boscastle, Cornwall, which is suffering from terrible flooding right now. (Well, terrible as far as England goes).

So probably not all that funny when people are missing and all, but, still. Random.

Boscastle is in Cornwall.

In Cornwall they make pasties.

In Cornwall it is very flooded.

Giant Pasty = Effective Dam for floods.
