A couple's refurbished home was flooded again, nearly a year after a devastating flood. The pair, aged 82 and 99, had returned to their house by Christmas, with help from volunteer decorators and donated furniture. Their possessions were destroyed in the initial flood, which also caused significant loss of life.

The initial flood was particularly destructive, killing at least 119 people. The couple had survived by clinging to a structure in their yard.

Further details about the flooding and its impact are available from the source.
