Just spotted this today:
A safety review of all 1,800 bridges in Cumbria is being carried out after severe flooding caused extensive damage to homes and roads in the county. Prime Minister Gordon Brown ordered the review during a visit on Saturday, when he pledged £1m for flooded communities

Pretty good huh? Except that I spotted a news item last week (can't find it now) where we sent £1.5M to another country to enable them to build better road crossings!
What's the expression - "Charity Begins At Home"
Apologies if seen as political and agianst rules - please delete if so
