Hi All,
Seems to be lots of damage about so whats happened near you?
Ive just spent an hour getting boats the right way up and tying them down. I completely lost one that blew out to sea last year...
Luckily this one was 30cm away from slicing through the back of my dart 18 :/
On the way home there were lots of trees down and the orwell bridge is closed too which means lots of traffic backing up.

Our bird feeder fell over and a few of the Perspex shed windows are fooked.
It's also too windy for me to be arsed to go and jack the mini up and remove the power steering pump AGAIN.. But I really need to do it today as I'm back to work tomorrow until next Monday.

Few fence panels down at Savannah's, twigs and branches all over the side of the road and our bin had fallen over. Not too much but I guess there is buildings everywhere to slow the wind a bit
Crane has partially collapsed in Greenwich meaning the road has closed, which is one of the main roads we use to get to our deliveries at work so I'm glad I'm off today.

We only got a rain, yesterday was a bit hit and miss with the rain, as we had to bail out working on the 306. it started off sunny and windy, then it changed very quickly.

Took the whole scaffold down in Woodley town centre and smashed straight into Waitrose, blew out all the windows. Lucky no one was hurt
Scaffolding company is going to be in a massive amount of shit for not fixing it to the building properly
That's what it's meant to look like

Just sounds like a load of made up nonsense from whinging southern fairy's.
I was up in Sotland for the weekend and noticed nothing but normal Scottish weather, came home to find no issues whatsoever.

Nothing major here either, lots of wind and rain noise, woke my baby up.
I did end up helping to retrieve a friends 12' trampoline from their neighbours garden, which had somehow managed to vault a fence, make it between 2 sheds, and 2 naffing great conifers, without damaging anything but itself. That was an experience.

My bad, I like to go out on windy days and lift peoples chavtastic trampolines so the wind catches them and then chortle to myself as they glide down the street like a daddy long legs being blasted with a hairdryer on full heat.
