Re: WARNING! Britain braced for Mega Cyclone!
Actually this windy weather is annoying! the two top windows on my bay window keep closing every time a gust of wind blows down the street, (which is every few minutes!). I keep opening them and the wind keeps closing them! (I don't have one of those window catches where you can place it through a hole, just handles that have a lock on them with a key).Ho Hum, I will not lose this weather tug of war! Here we go again!

Re: WARNING! Britain braced for Mega Cyclone!
Yep its been bad here in NI and a woman has lost her life in Galway when the caravan she was in blew off the side of the cliff
Ive tree limbs down, a fence down, the fence post actually has snapped, and the compost bin is away down the fields
Power is flakey out here but completely out in the town
Main roads are very bad with tree limbs everywhere and at the vets the receptionist was saying one client had. to cancel as her car had been over turned
Still we are safe, the damage can be fixed

Re: WARNING! Britain braced for Mega Cyclone!
Our vicar daughter has just phoned, a bit shaken. She had only been home about 5 minutes when a large tree belonging to the property across the road from her vicarage came down in the gale, blocking the road (a bus route) and her drive. Fortunately her car was not hit, however she is unable to get it out until the tree has been removed, goodness knows when that might be.

Nature can be so cruel.
Oh his mum had just come to him and is feeding him, so I hope they both survive.

Re: WARNING! Britain braced for Mega Cyclone!
Yes it's hit us now , it's high gusts and very blowy . Drove from Bridgewater this morning to home and the car was being pushed crossways by the gusts . I so hate the wind as seen my 6ft fence panels often blow down in the past . All I can do is watch as they take on a life of their ownAnd all my plant pots are rolling around the garden too !
