nearly blew me off my bike this morning, we're surrounded by trees and I hate seeing them swaying so violently.

Am really hating the wind today!
One of our recycle bins is gone and the council won't give us another unless we pay for it! It's also been blowing the chickens off their feet and even knocked my old collie dog over! |

It's pretty grim down here too. 80 mile an hour winds apparently, being on the coast we get a lot of this windy weather though. There's horizontal rain too, not at all pleasant. Oh. and my lights keep flashing too, just the kind of weather to bring on power cuts. Torts will have to come in from their vivs if we do.
