Morning all, The wind has died down & it's cold & sunny out there. According to the beeb it looks like we're getting the wind back this afternoon 40 mph & more wet stuff.



I'll turf the missus out of bed & get the sheets washed before it arrives.

No rain as yet. I've brought the washing in off the line before it disappears yellow warnings issued for high winds, I think they've arrived here.

I think I might have had a car like that myself back in the day ... when fresh air vents appeared ad hoc in the floor.

Dull and cloudy here, although the roofs are wet but the ground dry,so not sure if we have had a frost or not.
