Skenfrith and Storm Dennis: Under flood water - again

You are flooded - mop-up, repair and replace what you can - knowing it could all happen again.

But those living in the Monmouthshire village of Skenfrith did not think it would be just a matter of weeks before they were under water again.

The landlord of the village pub even watched as a five-tonne shipping container with his belongings inside floated away down the river.
