Good luck!

Looks like we are right slam in the middle of its path and will be hitting us around 8am

Think Mr Missy can get up and drive me in and collect me from work tomorrow. Too many trees on my route

I haven't got any hatches or battens.
I gave my wine to Morti.

Seriously though, I pray everyone stays safe.

Its a nautical expression Sweetie darlin' - ashore you have doors and windows - just ensure the doors and windows are firmly closed.

There’s always another route

It’s just a pain if the trees bring down power cables, then we have to wait till they can get a generator up and running before we can get the orders out. Could mean a very long day that’s all
