it could happen to you!
you probably can't imagine being caught up in the middle of a tornado, a hurricane or flood, but don't be so sure that it could never happen to you! We spoke to john about his experience...
Are you afraid of water? Well, John is! He had terrible 5 nightmares about drowning. " In the nightmares there was always. I desperately shouted for help but no one ever came. i woke up very scared, but happy that it was just a bad dream. " Last year, while John was on on holiday in Cornwall, his horrible dreams came true! One morning, he went into a little shop to buy some postcards. As he entered the shop, it started to rain heavily. "Nice weather for ducks," said the lady in the shop. " I hope the river doesn't burst its banks again like last year," She added. John opened the door to leave the shop but as soon as he stepped out, water swept him off his feet and washed him down the road. " Oh no! The river!" he thought, terrified. Then suddenly, he hit a lamppost. he quickly grabbed it and pulled himself out of the water. He was wet and cold but very relieved to be alive!
