Seems so by the pics on BBCalthough 3ft of water in the Kings Arms is average for a flood there I think.

probably.But living in Holgate I'm nowhere near the Ouse or the Foss so won't get flooded.
The Kings Arms is a shit boozer anyway. Serves them right.

and it's fairly shitIt's pretty much tourists only. Nobody I know drinks in there. The Ackhorne is bizarrely very popular with the house and techno crowd.
