Good morning all. still grey here and 7 degrees but the wind seems to have dropped and, as far as I can see no damage in my garden, looking out of the window. |

Cynth just rang the door bell to say she just rescued my green bin which had blown over and skidded across the drive. It is almost empty so very light.We have wedged it into a corner now with the blue bin. Hope this wind drops before tomorrow evening when all the green bins will have to go out. The wind has really come up since this morning when it was very calm. |

Been up the shop and the farm I pass just before the crossroad has a building down where he parks some of his tractors. It has'nt had sides since they had a fire there years ago when I spotted the smoke and told oh I thought it was Diamond's and he went up there and helped them get the cows out into the field. One of the tractors (a new one) had caught alight. Anyway it is now all lying on the floor blocking an entrance into the farm. They have two other entrances and two big sons and a daughter to help clear the mess up. |

Son has been and gone, just have to wait now until he lets me know he is safely home. His cough is not too bad but he is right, I don't want it. Hopefully the bugs were blown away. |

Vera yes we got to our meal it actually was not bad here, drizzly rain and a cold wind with a few gusts but not really bad ones. Nice to have 7 of us for the meal. Sadly the meal was not as good as it has been before. It felt like an inexperienced chef was standing in, it was all there but tasteless and maybe over cooked. Still we enjoyed ourselves. And had a laugh. |

It's blowing more and blustery here. I could hear it so tried to look up the close to see, but they don't seem to light the close at all at night now, just the Christmas lights I could see at a couple of places. |

It sounds horrid down your way Mel. That’s a shame about your apple tree. I like a russet apple and, as you say, it’s good with a bit of cheese. Batten down the hatches tonight and keep yourself warm. |

There was such a draught (sp) coming through the top of the front door I have stuck a s[pecial tape on it and put a draft excluder along the bottom of it. Its not been cold here today just extremly windy and gusty. There all leaves just outside the back door too. |

Don't know about the wind dying down late afternoon its still blowing a right old hooly here. I have managed to get round to the chickens again to give them some corn and I put a bit of clean shavings inside the house as its very wet in there. So in now for the night. Not done a thing apart from the chickens today and fished a few leaves out of the big pond this morning. It was covered in leaves. |
