There have been a series of flash floods in the north of England causing widespread damage in several areas - cars washed away, debris everywhere, parts of houses torn down; others flooded. Watching on the TV news, the photographic potential is immense - as is potential for original reporting.

I found myself wishing something similar would happen around Reading one day so I could report it first-hand on Wikinews.

I quickly checked myself - I was wishing for such destruction to happen?!
