Apparently, a bride and groom had to be ferried to their reception by rowing boat. 🤵👰🚣 Does anyone recall this - and more importantly, have photographs of that time? We're working on a project about memories of Bude and would love to include your images of the 1993 flood. Get out your albums and message us, tag friends and add below with any flood shots - thank you so much.

Lower your bills and lower your carbon footprint – it’s a win-win. What other kitchen tips have you discovered? Let us know with the hashtag #do1thing4Bude. #Do1thing4Bude #ClimateFundUK
