Haha I spoke to soon..... The strong winds have started again!
the most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, loving concern.

Quite nasty here last night, but no really bad damage. A tile (maybe two) off the roof, the sheep escaped into the garden because the little gate blew open, oh and my chiminea has been caught by a gust of wind and broken  :-[




But in the grand scheme of things, all ok. Wasn't as bad as the 100miles an hour we had a couple of years ago. Then, I could see the front door flex in the wind which was horrible!

pretty windy here too and more of the same today! we are quite lucky at the moment that we dont really have much stuff outdoors that needs securing. We have lost a few roof tiles though. I have to go out to work in an hour which im really not looking forward to, my car is quite tall!!

forecast is for more of the same pretty much right through til next weekend! snow and hail and thunder, aswell as gales today.
we had a measurement of 114.1mph a couple of miles away on Thursday night from a neighbours weather station thingy.
we have been lucky and had only minor damage so far  :fc:
